Good point and it also states that US News and World Report evaluated high schools in only 40 states.

You're right.

I think Newsweak has been the one that has done all schools for many years. I don't remember if they do seperate lists for public and private, but I do know that my alma mater (a Catholic school) has made that list many, many times.

“also, they only looked at public high schools.”

Couldn’t have a private high school like Helias in Jefferson City,
Mo on the list.

As they retain the politically-incorrect team name of “The Crusaders”.

Yes, total BS! Can't let people know that homeschooling and Christian schools are the best.

We analyzed 18,790 public high schools in 40 states using data from the 2005-2006 school year.

I noticed that as well. If they included all schools I’m sure they would add Bishop England High School, Charleston, SC (Class of 1970).

Peak To Peak Charter School Boulder County, Lafayette, Colorado

Is that a typo, or is your assertion incorrect?
