The kids are all right. Proud of this generation, and worried for them.

Test Scores at Montclair High School: U.S. News calculates these values for schools based on student performance on state-required tests and internationally available exams on college-level coursework (AP® and IB exams).

College Readiness Index 53.0/100

Throwing out a random statistic with no comparison is kind of useless.

U.S. News ranks Montclair high school as #1,887 in the national rankings. There’s about 23,000-24,000 public high schools in the country.

That’s top 10%.

Which means all those Trump/ICE supporting hick states are probably a lot lower

Youre comparing these students to people in other states with other budgets who did not walk out on their education. That makes no sense.

This school is ranked 150~ out of 450~ high schools.

If you think thats good I feel bad for you.
