[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2016 National Merit Semifinalists in FCPS high schools: 237 2016 National Merit Semifinalists in APS high schools: 8[/quote] Out of how many children? [/quote] APS is a fraction of the size of Fairfax. Fairfax is the 10th largest school division in the US, with approximately 188,545 students- http://www.fcps.edu/about/ APS has approximately 25, 678 students. http://www.apsva.us/cms/lib2/VA01000586/Centricity/Shared/QuickFacts.pdf- about 1/7 the size of fairfax. In both cases the number of semi-finalists is less then 1%. [/quote] Relative to the size of their student populations, there are far more NMSF in Fairfax. If Fairfax were only minting NMSF at the rate of APS, it would have around 60, not 237.[/quote]
