USNews.com has published their "America's Top 100 High Schools" list for the third year in a row, and it is no surprise that three of our best Miami-Dade County Magnet Schools have made the list again.
Early on the list as #15 is DART, which is the Design and Art Academy located in the Design District. Also on the top 100 is the New World School of the Arts, ranked #82 as well as Coral Reef Senior High School, #95. All three of these schools are magnet schools and all focus on the Arts. This is one more demonstration of how students involved in art and music programs out perform their peers.
Many of the schools on the top 100 list in general are magnet or advanced placement schools, and gain their ranking partially on the number of students enrolled in AP courses as well as their assessment of the school's perentage of "college readiness".
There are several other fine high schools in Dade County that are not on this list, but receive accolades and A grades on a local and state level.
