The 10 Best Public High Schools In America

#5 The School for the Talented and Gifted Magnet High School in Dallas, Texas

Newsweek and The Daily Beast recently released their list of the best high schools in America. Though there are many ways to rank high schools, they focused on finding schools that best prepare their students for college. The great news is that two of our Dallas High Schools made the list! These are the school and how they ranked:

#4 School of Science/Engineering Magnet

#5 The School for the Talented and Gifted Magnet High School

They looked at over 2,500 public high schools around the country, and factored in graduation rates, participation in college-level classes via Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) programs, and acceptance into a two- or four-year college program for the 2011-2012 school year.

They pulled out the top 10 schools from their list. Nearly all of these schools see 100% of their students graduate and then go on to college.
