Are you buying a home in Albuquerque soon and have children in high school? Then you certainly want to know the best schools to enroll them in. Every year, U.S. News and World Report puts together a list of the best schools in each state and city. There are 4 pieces of criteria that are used to rate each school. That criteria takes into account if students perform better than expected in their state, if graduation rates meet or exceed a national standard, if disadvantaged students perform better than the state average, and students are prepared for college-level coursework.
