So only one 'regular' high school?

There's a list of 100. I just put the top 10. Yeah it seems that a few of them were public schools.

Their is actually a top 1000 list, though the list in itself is a little missleading. It says its the top 100 High Schools in the US, however it does not include prep schools, if it included school such as Phillips Andover and Exeter, the list would look far different, atleast on the top end.

Damn, I wrote my down from the magazine I get. Here's the top 100 from their website:

My GF teaches at #415!

the local high school where I use to live is in the 150's and that scares me. I never really considered it a good school

Pretty much every single school around here is on that list somewhere, *except* the one I went to.

there is one schoo from here on that list, and its at lik 420 or so, pretty sad, but doesnt surprise me

I bet ya Fairhaven High School is no where on there!

Exactly.

I quit looking around #600 to see not a single Nebraska school was on the list...

I went to #1004.

Ouch 802, go Cougars~

287 Ossining Ossining N.Y. 2.174 23.9 24.7

Up for some Prison Learning?

What a bullshit list. Based on this?

Public schools are ranked according to a ratio, devised by Jay Mathews, that is the number of Advanced Placement and/or International Baccalaureate tests taken by all students at a school in 2005 divided by the number of graduating seniors.

That ranking leaves out so many important factors it boggles the mind. For instance, I want to know how many dudes are hanging out across the street smoking weed at lunch time. How many girls under 16 are on the pill? Do they offer co-ed phys-ed? Do they offer after-school ACT boot camps? Does the English Lit. teacher like to be tied up and told she's been a very bad girl? This shit is important. Screw Newsweek up Mindia's ass.

-Arlos

I take it your high school didnt make the list.

I don't think anywhere in Iowa made the list. ><

Not suprising, wrestling and corn shucking aren't exactly academia. Teet identification, although a valuble skill, wasn't given it's fair dinkum. Also, being able to name one of the two Interstates that transverse the state is subpar. Especially when 20 and 34 were the most popular answers.

Personally, I'd be livin in my own private ~Iowa~ if only I could.

SS~

I think he said it out of love and respect Min, if it was me he was talking too he'd just call me a ~wacko duchebag psycho bitch lickin nazi bootlshinin son of a southern liberal~.

Frankly Min, gettin Newsweek shoved up yer arse is no big deal. Just put him on the list.

Hah no wonder I considered highschool a joke. My school isn't even listed. How sad, but unsurprising.
But, our top rival school is #133. Go fig

Our rival school was pretty far up on the list. I think it's also the only IB school, smart azns go there.
They had a reeeally good football team too.
