Let me ask you this: What is the percentage of students who can get into the Ivy League universities? I bet it is much less than 6%. 6% is not good enough for me.

Besides, Newsweek list is very much flawed, as explained by several people here. My next question for you: When is DHS going to get into the US News & World Report list (even just the Bronze level)?

Another side story: Newsweek is almost bankrupt and Washington Post is trying to sell it to someone else. Chinese are very interested in buying it. Isn’t it Ironic? Nobody reads Newsweek!

This goes against this blog’s historical assault on DHS, but how about “NEWSWEEK RANKS DUBLIN HIGH SCHOOL IN TOP 6% OF US HIGH SCHOOLS”

This was 6% statistic is taking from the FAQ associated with the article –> http://www.newsweek.com/2010/06/13/america-s-best-high-schools-faq.html

I encourage AroundDublin readers to spend a moment to read that FAQ, especially FAQ #7, which details how *where* you place on the list is comparatively unimportant as *being* on the list.

Yes, now that DHS is finally on the bottom of the D-list they can finally justify wasting money on sending kids to Disneyland and getting everyone to triple their parcel tax payments.

Hi Anonymous – if you were writing the article about DHS getting added to the list, what would the title of your article read? Around Dublin is planning to update the original article or potentally publish a new article to recognize this cause for celebration. Maybe we can use your proposed title in the updated/new article. Let’s see some creativity!

Thx, John Z.

I’m waiting for the article from John Z showing that Dublin High made the list since it is now official. Oh wait, that won’t happen because that could hurt his chances of getting the Charter School approved which in turn would hurt his future employment opportunities. No hidden agenda here.
