Top Public High Schools Weird.
Weird. Alabama School of Fine Arts in Birmingham is the #4 high school in the nation using this Challenge Index scheme, which uses AP and IB scores. 8 out of the top 10 high schools in the nation are in the Southeast (although only 4 in The South). The 737 high schools on the list represent the top four percent of all American high schools. Color me surprised to see my high school make the list at 640.
