108, Bellaire high school. Looks like the school is going down, went down 20+ places.

Random fact, girl shot her mother last semester.

If you notice, my old high school blew the competition away 😛 I graduated 6th out of ... I don't remember.

#8 on the list, SEM, has an awful principal whose sole mission in life is to beat TAG at anything. Originally, he wanted to beat TAG academically, but that can't happen. Seems like he fails at life.

Where is your old/current school on the list?


umm highschool is virtually irrelevant as far as employment is concerned. Your college degree is what actually matters.

It makes any ranking of highschools pointless. If you went to the best highschool in the nation and followed it up with a community college, you're still screwed.

I didn't go to high school. Graduated college at 19.

<---Proud product of the California comm college and UC transfer program.
 
I think this obcession with rankings is getting out of hand, and perhaps indicates problems with our educational system.

I don't care because any school or student can be "gifted and awesome as a school or person" if you throw enough money at it, thus why my school was so high as it is in a town where the median house price is around 1.5 million.

I don't think the fact that they throw money at the school is the reason it scores so high.

I think the fact that you have a bunch of people that can afford 1.5 million dollar houses tells you that they're very successful and probably are much smarter than average to begin with.

Actually, what *really* matters is who you know and what strings you can pull. Good jobs can be earned, but the best jobs are appointed.

The methodology is rather odd. I took an AP calculus exam which I failed. Yet according to the methodolgy used here my school gets a bump up in the ranking simply because I sat for the exam.

Yep, I wouldn't place too much confidence on this list.
 
I went to private school.

I am surprised that all these crappy schools around here are in the 500 range.
