Clipboard

The NYT has a story on the rankings industry placing the best of the best atop the high school lists. Here it is http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/04/education/in-best-high-schools-lists-numbers-dont-tell-all.html

What they don’t cal out, oddly, is that the #1 ranked school in NY State is in… LIC

It’s #21 in the country
