School Rankings : Daily Beast fails to mention Ridgewood in its top Schools Survey
The Daily Beast had this one,
not sure how it was done, saw it had Glen Rock and Ramsey in it, but not Ridgewood or Northern Highlands or Ramapo
Zillow uses www.greatschools.org which ranks RHS 10 out of 10 …. also very high marks for Northern Highlands 9, Glen Rock 9, and Ramapo 9.
Or Tenafly. This is stupid
Who cares what the “Daily Beast” thinks… !!!
Every magazine and website is starting to rate schools. They have all have different criteria and different results.
There is a very good reason……sorry to burst your bubble folks ….RHS just doesn’t have it anymore….
RHS decline notwithstanding, the Beast is more of a troll than a beast these days.
I haven’t been a student @ RHS since 1975 but what I hear today about RHS. is it’s exceptional at both ends of the spectrum, for the super bright, and the special needs, but if your an average student they aren’t any better than any other school.
At least we can still hold onto the “tradition” of excellence even if the actual excellence is long gone…
From wiki
The Daily Beast has released several university rankings, which have received criticism for unscientific data and analysis. In 2010 it released a ranking of the “50 Druggiest Colleges” citing data from College Prowler, a web site that allows open posting by users.[16]
#7 LOL
Thanks
Discrediting the Daily Beast (justified) does not negate RHS’ slide…
Ridgewood doesn’t even make the top 44 in this ranking: https://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/new-jersey
