These programs are important tools for closing Washington- Wilkes' achievement gap. Recently Washington-Wilkes High School was named a Georgia Advanced Placement Access and Support School by Kathy Cox, State Superintendent of Schools. This designation is given to Georgia public schools where at least 30 percent of the AP test takers are African-American or Hispanic and at least 30 percent of all AP exams received a score of 3 or higher.
