Hanover High has won a silver medal in U.S.News & World Report magazine's Best High School rankings. HHS also won this medal two years ago. The magazine says it analyzed academic and enrollment data from 18,743 public high schools "to find the very best across the country. These top schools were placed into gold, silver, bronze or honorable-mention categories." The magazine creates its own indices based on state testing, Advanced Placement exam results and other academic measures.
The magazine's gold-medal and silver-medal awards totaled 3% of the schools they surveyed. The results were published on December 9.
Other silver-medal winners from New Hampshire were Hollis-Brookline and Oyster River. Five schools in New Hampshire won bronze medals. The magazine awarded three silver medals to schools in Vermont (Montpelier, Mt. Abraham and Stowe) and five bronze medals.
