[quote=Anonymous]I am someone that looks at high school rankings. Not because I think the schools are inherently better than the others, but because of the types of children that these schools attract. I'm a big believer that at that age, there is more of a gang mentality. Teenagers in general follow their peers, and are very affected by what others are doing. Children in the better ranked schools tend to be more inclined towards education, their parents are more inclined towards education, and my kids will be surrounded by people that want to do well. I would definitely not rule out a lower ranked school, but I definitely would not look at a bottom tiered school. [/quote]
