Newsweek magazine just released their annual Best High Schools ranking, and once more our two high schools made the list. CHHS was ranked #170 (top 0.7% of the US high schools) and GHS #342 (top 1.3% of the US high schools). According to the article, there are approximately 27,000 high schools in the nation. This ranking is based on the rate of AP tests taken by all the students at each school versus the total number of graduates. The ranking used the AP tests taken in the 2008 - 2009 school year. The rate of AP tests per graduate was 3.428 at CHHS and 2.669 at GHS. For the state of Texas, CHHS and GHS ranked #20 and #37, respectively.
The full Newsweek's article can be found here.
Congratulations to both high schools!
