Philadelphia Magazine: Nine Montgomery County Schools Offer Honors-Level Scholastics
Nine Montco high schools are among the 40 top-rated learning institutions in Phila. and its suburbs, according to a new ranking by Philadelphia Magazine.
To determine the top-performing city and suburban public high schools, the publication’s editors used the latest available data from the Pa. Department of Education and the National Center for Education Statistics. This year, average SAT scores were excluded from the analysis, owing to the fact that the Commonwealth has ceased releasing those data.
