Newsweek Magazine has announced that Pioneer High School, Huron High School and Saline High School are ranked in the Top 6% of the Nation for Public High Schools.
Public schools are ranked according to a ratio formula devised by Jay Mathews.
The number of Advanced Placement, Intl. Baccalaureate and/or Cambridge tests taken by all students at a school in 2008 divided by the number of graduating seniors. All of the schools on the list have an index of at least 1.000; they are in the top 6 percent of public schools measured this way.
E&E means Excellence and Equity
Sub.Lunch is the amount of students receiving federally funded lunches. (Not sure why THAT matters)
Thirty nine high schools in Michigan are in the Top 6%. Read the entire report here on Newsweek.
