7 . National Rankings: Best High Schools
The U.S. News rankings include data on more than 22,000 public high schools in 50 states and the District of Columbia. Schools were awarded gold, silver or bronze medals based on their performance on state assessments and how well they prepare students for college.
About the Awards
Gold—Top 500 Schools based on highest college readiness.
Silver—High-performing schools based on lower college readiness.
Bronze—High-performing schools based on state exam performance, listed alphabetically.
Award Distribution
Gold 2.4%
Silver 10.3%
Bronze 16.8%
No Medal 70.5%
HOW We Determine the Awards
STEP 1 Students perform better than expected in their state.
We looked at reading and math results for students on each state's proficiency(水平) tests and then factored in the percentage of economically disadvantaged students, who tend to score lower.
STEP 2 Disadvantaged students perform better than state average.
We compared each school's math and reading proficiency rates for disadvantaged students--black, Hispanic and low-income—with the state wide results for these student groups and then selected schools that were performing better than their state averages.
STEP 3 Student graduation rates meet or are greater than a national standard.
We left out schools from consideration if their graduation rates were lower than 75 percent--a starting point that is higher than a federal law that requires states to give extra resources to schools below 67 percent.
STEP 4 Students are prepared for college-level coursework.
We calculated a College Readiness Index,which is based or the school's AP participation rate and how well the
students did on those tests. Tiebeakers were used to determine ranks of schools that achieved the same College Readiness Index.

Dear Rom,
I’m very exciting to hear that you are coming to our school soon. Now let me to introduce our school to you. Our school is a very famously school with a long history. We have many experienced teacher and excellent equipment. There were two teaching buildings; one is for seniors and other is for juniors. There are two lab buildings or a library. Except Chinese, maths, English, physics and chemistry, we have some electives. The students can choose that they like to attend. We love our school. I am looking forward to meet you soon.
Alongside these more conventional schools, two types of boarding schools have also become more popular recently. Sports academies and stage schools seek to cater for children with particular interests and talents, while so-called troubled-teens have been able to turn to a range of religious or wilderness schools to solve their problematic behavior.
Boarding schools allow children a safe space in which to accomplish greater control and independence over their daily lives. Teachers and staff can look after and support but they are unlikely to be over-protective. This can be a great preparation for university or for working away from home in later life as it provides an intermediate step between childhood and full independence.
However, Parents are a child’s most natural support and best role models to learn from. If they are separated from them for long periods of time, this may damage their relationship and leave the child feeling anxious or alone. Schools are unlikely to be able to copy the detailed knowledge of each individual child that a parent has and therefore cannot be as effective in supporting the child.
To sum up, boarding schools have both their advantages and disadvantages, so it is up to you to decide whether to send your children to boarding schools or not.
