[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe they're touting the ranking from Forbes Magazine?

"Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is the 5th best school district in America in terms of delivering high student performance at a low cost, according to a new analysis published in Forbes magazine. MCPS ranked the highest of any school system in Maryland and the Washington, D.C. region on the list of 97 districts studied by Forbes. "

If not that one, I'm sure there have been other attempts at ranking school systems.[/quote]

But what school systems are they comparing?  Large ones?  All school systems?

What about all the excellent school systems in other town-based areas, e.g. New York, New Jersey, Illinois (Chicago area)?  Are those considered?  Because I find it hard to believe they are counting each and every school system, including those systems in towns with populations of e.g. 25,000.[/quote]
