East Cobb High Schools Named to "Most Challenging" List

Staff Report

Fourteen Cobb High Schools have been named among the Most Challenging High Schools in the United States. The Washington Post’s annual list ranks high schools based on a formula that calculates the number of Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), and Advanced International Certificate of Education tests given each year at a school. That number is divided by the number of graduating seniors in a given year. There are 2,358 high schools on the list and more than 20,000 high schools in the United States.
