Actually, High Technology High already had a FIRST team, but they folded after the 2003 season to compete in a underwater robotics competition (not sure which). I've worked with an alumnus who was on their FIRST team and spearheaded the effort to compete in the underwater competition.

I agree with Jason, this list is pretty arbitrary and not very credible.

An example:
High Tech High (not to be confused with the aforementioned school) has never made this list. Yet schools from around the world, including many on this list, spend weeks at High Tech High figuring out how they can replicate its success at their school. I'm not saying High Tech High should be #1, but certainly it deserves placement on this list in my opinion...
