| NAT MALKUS: Why The U.S. News Best High School Rankings Are Flawed. The part about their rankings not being based on apples-to-apples comparisons seems right. |

When it comes to school rankings, two very large performance measurement/reporting issues need to be balanced: 1) performance improvement vs. performance results, and 2) information needs of teachers and administrators vs. information needs of parents and students, which admittedly is not easy to do. It seems that generally home buyers are mostly concerned about whether the local schools are preparing their children to successfully compete at a college level. This is what the Texas Education Agency accountability rating approach mostly failed to show in the past and is the information I endeavor to provide in my annual best DFW high schools analyses. |
