Forest Lake Area High School students enrolled in advanced placement courses throughout the 2014-15 school year posted some of the highest overall scores the school has ever seen. Sixty-seven percent of AP students scored high enough to earn college credit, exceeding both the state average of 65 percent and the global average of 58 percent.

“It has been a steady progression as far as number of courses we offer and number of kids we serve within the AP program,” Principal Steve Massey said.
