I couldn’t write an article about Marietta High School ranking in the top 5% of high schools in the country without mentioning the 4 East Cobb high schools that made the list. Listed below are the school and their rank on the list.

1. Walton High School - 120

Now, the criteria for this list wasn’t solely made up of test scores. In fact, test scores weren’t factored in at all. The number of students taking advanced tests were, among other things. Please go to Newsweek’s site to find out exactly how they ranked these public high schools.
