By what measure? High school graduation? College acceptance? Life?

For high school graduation, we do have data: http://osse.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/osse/publication/attachments/2013%20Adjusted%20Cohort%20Graduation%20Rates%20School%20by%20School%20-%20ACGR.pdf

Background info: http://osse.dc.gov/publication/2012-2013-adjusted-cohort-graduation-rate

Out of 35 public and public charter high schools, the top graduations rates:

1. BENJAMIN BANNEKER HS 100.00%
2. WASHINGTON LATIN PCS HS 95.74%
3. FRIENDSHIP PCS WOODSON COLLEGIATE ACADEMY 95.18%
4. KIPP DC COLLEGE PREP PCS 95.12%
5. ELLINGTON SCHOOL OF THE ARTS 95.08%
6. MCKINLEY TECHNOLOGY HS 94.08%
7. PHELPS ARCHITECTURE CONSTRUCTION AND ENGINEERING HS 93.26%
8. SCHOOL WITHOUT WALLS SHS 92.14%
9. WASHINGTON MATH SCIENCE TECH PCS 91.03%
10. SEED PCS 86.11%

5 are public charter high schools, 5 are selective DCPS schools. There are no neighborhood public schools in the top 10 -- the neighborhood public school with the highest graduation rate (Wilson, with 75.00%), is ranked #16.

Is there any data on this?
