Saltus Grammar Students Get Top Awards

Four Saltus Grammar School students have won top awards from a US based examinations board.

Alexandra Barnes, Christian Oatley, Casey Schuler and Megan Zimmerer were all awarded National AP Scholar and AP Scholar with Distinction.

The awards come after 78 percent of Saltus students sitting the Advanced Placement examinations of the US College board achieved a grade 3 or higher [5 is the highest grade]. A grade of 3 is usually accepted as a subject credit in North American universities.
