You're observant...I like that!

As for Florida...Give credit where credit is due. :)

[TheEnforcer]

Nah.. Wisconsin is consistently at the top for many of the categories that actually determine things like getting in college, academic performance on standardized tests, etc.. this seems like arather subjective way to evaluate schools.

They must have considered track & field.

CT's old school:

159 | Walton | Marietta | Ga. | 2.460 | 2

Yet US News and World Report listed it as a top 5 school 6 years ago - I guess it's gone downhill :(

[Mike AI]

Hillsbourough HS was ranked #10 by Newsweek, yet it received a D from the State of Florda ranking.

I am watching it on local news now. Strange.
