Each year since 2005, the Belin-Blank Center has released the Iowa AP Index to recognize the Top 50 Iowa accredited public and nonpublic high schools for providing Advanced Placement opportunities to Iowa’s high school students. The 2012 Iowa AP Index is based on May 2011 AP exams and May/June 2011 graduation data.

The Top 50 schools range from rural to urban, public to nonpublic, and they span the state’s geography. There are 40 public and 10 nonpublic schools in the Top 50. The Top 50 ranking and state average for 2005-2012 can be viewed here.
The Iowa AP Index focuses only on AP opportunities. We encourage high schools to continue their efforts at offering AP courses and other college-level curriculum (e.g., through concurrent enrollment courses and Postsecondary Enrollment Options), and we applaud students for stepping up to the academic challenge.
