MSNBC had this list. Kind of interesting. So, did your school make it?


Only one that mattered to me was my boys' high school made the list! #1,144, but better than nuttin!

I didn't see our Public School... I'm sort of surprised, but it actually reinforces my decision that I send my kidlets to private school.

I wonder when that list comes out. That's the one I want to see.

I called the high school to find out. It goes by the eldest sibling's birthday. Even (like Mike - 3/30) will attend East, odds attend West. All sibling s thereafter attend the same HS as the eldest.

they are on the same plot of land and connect. One is on the east side of the land and the other is on the west. They share the athletic facilities. Apparently your birthday determines which one you will attend.

So, if you don't want to go to the same high school as your siblings, can you opt for the other school?

Don't think that's really an option. The whole basis was so they could have 2 teams for all of the sports, but share the same on-site facilities. From what I've heard many of the classes overlap one another as well (ie you are taking classes with kids from the 'other' HS.) So, considering that, why is just WBEast listed? dunno
