THIRTEEN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS MAKE MIAMI – Thirteen Miami-Dade County Public Schools earned their way onto Newsweek Magazine’s List of America’s Top High Schools, published this week. Miami-Dade County public schools that made the list are Coral Reef, MAST Academy, Miami Palmetto, Coral Gables, School for Advanced Studies, Miami Killian, South Miami, Design & Architecture, American, New World School of the Arts, Southwest Miami, G. Holmes Braddock, and Barbra Goleman. Public schools were ranked according to a ratio devised by Jay Mathews of Newsweek Magazine: the number of Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate and/or Cambridge tests taken by all students at a school in 2006 divided by the number of graduating seniors. All of the schools on the list have an index of at least 1.000; they are in the top five percent of public schools measured this way. ### 07-FMN/142/QT |
