Then there are schools like Little Rock Central (which I use as an example merely because I'm familiar with it). They routinely pump out national merits and presidential scholars. The quality of the education, if you choose to engage in it, is through the roof. Of course the bulk of their students choose the wrong route. I do wonder if there is a model tucked away in that school, however. They seem to do a really good job of helping their brightest students succeed. I'm not really familiar with what they do, but I'd be interested to know more for sure. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rock_Central_High_School http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rock_Central_High_School
