What NCS ding-a-ling posted this? Thanks for the giggle.

Laugh out loud at the NCS booster who posted this without investigating the source.

Not meaningless, they provide great insight into what the wingnuts are thinking.

It's not only wingnuts that are thinking about rankings. There are plenty of bleeding heart liberals who look at those rankings as God's word.

I doubt that ANY liberal that knew what "thebestschools.org" was all about would embrace THESE rankings.

Another thing you might not know without "thebestschools.org:

Darwinists have been protecting a shrinking turf using ridicule, rhetoric, and religion for over a century

The same site has a list of "50 smartest people of faith" and guess what? They all have light skin EXCEPT Dr. Ben Carson and Condi Rice - who knew?

The group behind this list "the Best Schools.Org" is linked to the Discovery Institute the "brains" behind the "intelligent design" creationist movement - the main purpose is evidently to push their wierd college rankings:

George Mason HS is actually in the Falls Church City school district. Sorry, Fairfax County Public Schools.

George Mason High School (GMHS) is a comprehensive public high school located near Washington, DC. The school is unusual in serving grades 8–12, making it one of the rare five-year high schools in the U.S.

First school in Virginia to become an accredited IB institution

I'd like to give that credibility since I went to the #1 school but I saw so many errors in that article that it cannot be taken seriously.

Huh, If Deep Springs College is the #1 college in the country, then that is ALL I need to know about the quality and credibility of ALL these rankings!

Yes and the top 10 are nationally known by name recognition & reputation.

According to the companion article about top-50 public schools, the best public school in the DMV area is George Mason High School in Fairfax. No other public high school in DC, MD, or NoVa even made the list. Sorry Thomas Jefferson, Blair, Wootton, Wilson, Walter Johnson, Winston Churchill, McLean, Langley, etc. Better luck next time.
