DSA #2 in GA and #75 Nationally
DeKalb School of the Arts maintained its 75th national ranking and moved up to the #2 school in Georgia according to US News and World Report High School Rankings. The index includes measures of AP testing, state standardized testing, and school demographics to compile a college readiness score. Looking at the rankings for Georgia, 3 of the top 4 schools are “arts magnets”…..food for thought.
Bravo and applause to the dedicated staff, motivated students, and supportive parents for making DSA an amazing place for students to excel academically and artistically.
