How Tri-Cities High Schools Measure Up

Posted on Jun 14, 2010 by in Kennewick Real Estate, Richland Real Estate

Newsweek published a list of the top 1,600 high schools in the nation. 1,600 sounds like a lot, but in terms of all the public high schools in this great nation, it’s only 6% of the total.

So, locally, we made the list at #1058 (Kamiakin High School in Kennewick) and #1094 (Hanford High School in Richland). Kennewick and Southridge (in Kennewick) , Pasco and Chiawana (in Pasco) and Richland High did not make the list. Chiawana may be too new, as it’s first school year has just ended.

I was disturbed to see that my old high school in California ranks 14 schools below our rival high school. Ridiculous, I say. Everyone knows that Glen A. Wilson High School not only turned out the smartest grads, but also the best looking :-) . Los Altos was for losers.

Check out where your school sits on the list.
