Re: America's Top Public High Schools
Hauppauge is 394
Too bad it wasn't ranked 358 ![]() P.S. I looked at the Long Island schools for this FRC list. Some of the FRC teams are now defunct. Code:
Rank Team # School 37 Jericho (defunct) 54 2638 Great Neck South 76 2875 Cold Spring Harbor 110 496 Vandermeulen 116 2872 Wheatley 158 Manhasset (defunct) 167 1803 Schreiber 207 373 Locust Valley (defunct) 267 2869 Bethpage 350 353 Plainview-Old Bethpage JFK 389 514 Miller Place 394 358 Hauppauge 468 1554 Oceanside 610 1019 Westhampton Beach (defunct) 642 352 Carle Place 656 28 Pierson 765 263 Sachem North 950 1358 MacArthur 957 569 W.

Re: America's Top Public High Schools
There are 33 teams from Michigan in the rankings - which is as close to the list that Killer Bees will get, since they're not from a public school.
469 is ranked #22. Many other teams are also on the list, some from teams in more than one school, including 503, 226, 217, 247, 1189, 1504, and others that I can't recall the numbers right now. |

Re: America's Top Public High Schools
1189's two schools are ranked 857 & 434...same district, same curriculum, but very different ranks. At North, where I go, a lot of kids take AP classes just because. Hardly anyone takes normal Psych, they all take AP instead. There's also a lot of pressure from parents, teachers, etc. A lot of kids end up in AP classes because of pressure, and they end up doing badly in the classes because of it.
Is it like this in any other schools? |

Re: America's Top Public High Schools
half of 1675 (we're a two school collaboration) is ranked 271. The other half is a technical school and I don't think it offers AP (and I know not IB) classes.
I'm wondering if the wealth of the school has anything to do with how well it ranks. Schools with more money can help pay for more tests... Last edited by Katie_UPS : 09-06-2009 at 12:46. |

Re: America's Top Public High Schools
There's a bunch of schools from Texas. I also noticed that 2468, Westlake, is #72, 2583 from Westwood is #88, and 2158 from Anderson is #466. Killeen, FRC 647, is #955. That's as far as I've gotten.
I did a search for Austin and Round Rock schools and it looks like nearly every school listed has a BEST robotics team. Last edited by JaneYoung : 09-06-2009 at 14:52. Reason: word change |

Re: America's Top Public High Schools
Team 1771 - North Gwinnett High School - Rank 212
Team 1261 - Peachtree Ridge High School - Rank 648 While It is apparent that there is somewhat of a correlation, I don't think that it is that big of a factor. 40 or so students out of 3000+ students cannot change the numbers that much. |

Re: America's Top Public High Schools
Most, if not all, of the Northern Ohio schools I recognize from that list are in well-to-do communities, some extremely so.
