Barry Mellen Selected to Advanced Placement Reading

Barry Mellen of Sturgeon Bay High School has been selected to participate in the annual reading and scoring of the College Board’s Advanced Placement U.S. History Examinations this June. This is Mellen’s 6th consecutive invitation. The reading will

take place in Louisville, KY. The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program gives more than 1.8 million capable high school students an opportunity to take rigorous college-level courses and examinations. Based on their exam performance, successful students can receive credit and/or advanced placement when they enter college. “The Reading draws upon the talents of some of the finest teachers and professors that the world has to offer,” said Trevor Packer, vice president of the Advanced Placement Program at the College Board. “It fosters professionalism, allows for the exchange of ideas, and strengthens the commitment to students and to teaching. We are very grateful

for the contributions of talented educators like Mr. Mellen.”
