[quote=Eugene][quote]Westview and Torrey Pines High alternate in who’s on top of the other in San Diego yearly. [/quote]
In terms of pure APIs and SATs, Torrey Pines High is usually ahead. In APIs the difference is usually small, in SATs there’s no competition, Torrey Pines is consistently #1 public school in the county (but it’s still way behind private schools like LJCDS).
Also, rankings are going to change soon, because Del Norte High is supposed to open this fall and that’s going to result in reshuffling of students among schools. PUSD web site already has new maps which show Santaluz, Del Sur and 4S assigned to Del Norte. I’m not sure what the situation right now but Santaluz students probably have an option to attend Westview (it’s only logical, Westview is much closer to Santaluz than Mt Carmel). With Santaluz out and parts of old Penasquitos in, API rankings are going to drop 20+ points in a blink of an eye.[/quote]
Meh, nothing good parenting couldn’t do.. Besides you need people that make the bottom of the curve if you want to be at the top of the curve. You put a bunch of 4.2+GPA/high SAT scoring students in the same school, it kinda sucks to be considered an underachiver with just a 4.0GPA if you know what I mean.
I knew plenty of parents that sent their kids to very expensive private schools, and then turn around in college and major in some of the most bullcrap degree on the planet….A decision that resulted in learning the most useful lines in their current career: “Would you like fries with that?”
