The top three Massachusetts schools (and the only 3 in the top 100) are all charter schools:
- #23 Sturgis Charter High School
- #84 MATCH Charter School
- #93 Mystic Valley Regional Charter School
Ruminations on charter schools' place in the urban education landscape of Boston, MA.
Note that all three of these schools had huge attendance drops through the four grades, and the that the methodology (total AP exams/# of seniors) favors schools with a small number of seniors. A high attrition rate (which all of these schools have), oddly, is a major plus in the rankings, rather than a minus.
