Archbishop Stepinac High School students have earned a total of 75 Advanced Placement (AP) Scholar designations in the 2024 AP rankings. Among these high achievers, five students received the prestigious AP Capstone Diplomas. As in previous years, this year’s group from Stepinac includes students who have earned multiple designations, as detailed in the list below. Among the students scholars are two from Croton-on-Hudson and three from Ossining.
Frank Portanova ‘93, Stepinac High School’s Vice Principal of Academics and Curriculum, said, “Once again, Stepinac students excelled in the annual AP Scholar Awards, which reflect their hard work and determination to succeed,” adding, “We congratulate them on distinguishing themselves on their college transcripts. Members of the Class of 2024 who earned various AP Scholar designations have begun their studies at top schools like Brown, Yale, UPenn, Boston College, the University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill), and Georgetown, among others. These AP Scholar distinctions for students in the classes of 2025 and 2026 will surely help to make the current Stepinac upperclassmen highly competitive and marketable in the college admissions process, as they did for the Class of 2024.”
