Gwynedd Mercy Academy High School Earns College Board’s AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award

Gwynedd Mercy Academy High School has earned the College Board’s AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award, which recognizes schools that are closing the gender gap and engaging more female students in computer science coursework in AP Computer Science Principles. Out of more than 18,000 secondary schools worldwide that offer AP courses, Gwynedd is one of only 685 to achieve this important result.

Specifically, College Board is honoring schools who reached 50% or higher female representation in either of two AP computer science courses in 2018, or whose percentage of the female examinees met or exceeded that of the school’s female population in 2018.
