"Three of the nation’s ten best public high schools are in Texas."

Products of the Dallas and Houston school districts. The only other Texas school in the top 25 is from Austin.

So the top schools comes from the most Liberal cities in the state?

I think where bad schools do exist in red states, it’s due to a throwback Appalachian/Rural South farmer mentality towards education that seems to stick in some small communities.

Oddly, some of the best cities to live in for a conservative professional looking for a decent job but a family and business friendly environment are liberal cities in conservative states.

Please note, that these are charter/magnet schools! These are NOT normal everyday public schools. Your kids have to excel to be accepted into these schools and they require, REQUIRE parent participation!

Also note that there is another Texas school in the top 10 - in Irving, Texas. Once again, this TOO is a charter/magnet school. My nephew goes to the school in Irving!

I'll bet it is not on the east side of IH 35. If there was one in the Austin area, I'd have to say Westlake ISD.
