Another record breaking year for Pelham High School!

Our students and teachers continue to raise the bar.

This year, Pelham High School achieved an 81% AP Exam pass rate, breaking last year's record by 5 percentage points. This is our sixth consecutive year of schoolwide improvement.

Even more impressive, 11 of our Advanced Placement programs exceeded both the Alabama and global AP pass rates, representing a 120% increase from last year.

These results reflect the hard work of our students, the dedication of our teachers, and the unwavering support of our families. Thank you to everyone who continues to make academic excellence the standard at Pelham High School.
