Way to go Braves! For three straight years now, Newsweek magazine has put Kamiakin High School on its list of the top 1,500 high schools in the U.S. The Braves are ranked #998 this year — very cool!

Here’s how Newsweek describes the ranking system:

Public schools are ranked according to a ratio devised by Jay Mathews: the number of Advanced Placement, Intl. Baccalaureate and/or Cambridge tests taken by all students at a school in 2008 divided by the number of graduating seniors. All of the schools on the list have an index of at least 1.000; they are in the top 6 percent of public schools measured this way.
