Top 1,200 High Schools

Wednesday May 10, 2006
Once again Newsweek stirs the pot by publishing its annual top high schools list. Now I will get yet another batch of emails from parents demanding to know where to find private school rankings. Sorry! You are out of luck. You cannot rank private schools. Each is unique.

Can you find out where their graduates have gone? Can you ask about test scores? Yes. Ask those questions and many more as you search for the right school for your child. The bottomline remains the same: the right school is the one which makes your child happy and satisfies your requirements as well. Find out more about why you cannot rank private schools.
