[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would call Buchholtz a pretty average high school. Buchholtz High School does not offer AAP or IB curriculum.  Eastside High School in Gainesville offers the AAP and the IB curriculum. Oak Hall, a private high school also has a lot of the professor's kids.

Kids attending Buchholtz are not on the AAP or IB track.[/quote]

When I was in Gainesville, Buchholz was the wealthiest of the three public high schools. [/quote]

I'm the Prior prior poster. I forgot to mention GHS, Gainesville High School.  I agree that Buchholtz pulls from wealthier families than GHS.

Eastside High School has the AAP kids, the IB kids, the culinary school kids, and the poors.  The low incomes from the poor families skew down
the family wealth numbers of the AAP kids and the IB kids at Eastside. The highest achieving professor kids are at Eastside not Buchhotz.

Another high school in town is PK Yonge the lab school associated with the University of Florida.  It also draws a lot of professor kids and you have to be accepted to attend PK Yonge.
