[quote=Anonymous]I looked it up and my high school was a 9 which I expected. Fwiw I dated someone from another school in our district (only had 4 high schools at the time) where students came from a lower SES background. That school is rated a 6 which was also expected. about on par with when we were there 10-15 yrs ago. The difference in student bodies was remarkable. Much less emphasis on academics and much more on partying. Lots of parents would go out of town and leave the kids at home. Stuff like that just never happened at my school, maybe in a small crowd. As a whole, many more from my school went to and finished college and have good jobs now. I still keep in touch with the ex and from what I can tell many of his classmates are bar tenders and single parents. Of course I'm sure there were students from his school who did well but I can't help but feel the environment and lack of parental involvement significantly altered outcomes for many.[/quote]
