Maggie Walker chosen as a top school in America

The Daily Beast used six factors to rank the nation’s high schools.

The Daily Beast chose Maggie Walker Governer’s School as one of the top 100 schools and came in at #10.

We used six indicators culled from school surveys to compare public high schools in the U.S., with graduation and college acceptance rates weighed most heavily. Other criteria included: college-level courses and exams, percentage of students with free or reduced lunch, as well as SAT and ACT scores – another mark of how well a school prepares students for college. The full results are below. School entries with icons indicate the school ranked in the top 100 of that category.
