Washington Post: Citrus’s among America’s Most Challenging High Schools 2013

Last week we learned that all three of our high schools in Citrus County were recognized by the Washington Post as “America’s Most Challenging High Schools”.

Of the 22,000 high schools in the US, about 1,900 are recognized.  Rankings are based on the total number of Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and Advanced International Certificate of Education tests, and college level coursework given in a school year divided by the number of seniors who graduate in May.  The schools that earn this challenge honor are among the top 9% of schools in the US.

Lecanto High School is ranked 655 out of 1,919 awarded schools, Citrus High Schools is 1,430, and Crystal River High School is 1,803.
