Towson High Schools were ranked in Newsweek’s Top 500 list on June 19, 2011, and Towson residents should be proud.
Seven Baltimore County Schools made the list (18 total for the State of Maryland). According to the Newsweek article:
…each school’s score is comprised of six components: graduation rate (25%), college matriculation rate (25%), AP tests taken per graduate (25%), average SAT/ACT scores (10%), average AP/IB/AICE scores (10%), and AP courses offered (5%).
Carver Center led the Towson pack at #232. Towson High School ranked #413, and Loch Raven High ranked #443.
Other Baltimore County High Schools that made the list were Essex Technical (#131!), Hereford High School in Sparks was #219, Pikesville High #388, and Dulaney High School in Timonium #446.
It goes to show why many feel living in Towson is great!
