Ha ha – very scientific…
… and still we only managed 10th position.
Niche.com? Never heard of it. And apparently, US News and World Report has never heard of Ridgewood HS.
Any ranking that’s based on a survey of parents’ praising their own ability to keep their kids from going to school with the poors is not really worth much.
What a load of crap……
