North Pointe is one of America's Best High Schools
For the second year in a row, Newsweek Magazine has named North Pointe Preparatory as "One of America's Best High Schools!"
According to Newsweek Magazine's
website, the Prep is the sixth best High
School in Arizona.
"These are all exceptional schools.
Every one is in the top 5 percent of
27,000 American high schools
measured this way," said Jay Matthews,
the creator of the challenge index, the
ratio devised to indicate which schools
were the most demanding and
supportive of all students. The
challenge index takes the number of
Advanced Placement, International
Baccalaureate and/or Cambridge tests
taken by all students at a school in a
given year and divides it by the number of
graduating seniors.
"It is exciting to see schools like ours be
recognized for challenging all students
with the rigors of Advanced Placement (AP).
When we opened our doors six years ago and decided to require that all students take AP classes (freshman take AP World History, sophomores
take AP American History, juniors take AP Government, and seniors take AP Spanish and AP Literature & Composition) we did not realize that we
were a part of a new movement. We just believed that any student would learn more in an AP or honors class than in a regular class. It is nice to
know that the idea has gained support," said Pointe Schools Superintendent Johnson.
