On Excessive Packaging

Small Schools Rising

This year’s list of the top 100 high schools shows that today, tho with fewer students are

flourishing.

Size isn’t everything, but it does matter, and the past decade has en a noticeable

countertrend toward smaller schools. This has been due ,in part ,to the Bill and Melinda Gates

Foundation, which has invested $1.8 billion in American high schools, helping to open about

1,000 small schools-most of them with about 400 kids each with an average enrollment of only

150 per grade, About 500 more are on the drawing board. Districts all over the country are taking

notice, along with mayors in cities like New York, Chicago and San Diego. The movement

includes independent public charter schools, such as No.1 BASIS in Tucson, with only 120

high-schoolers and 18 graduates this year. It embraces district-sanctioned magnet schools, such as

the Talented and Gifted School, with 198 students, and the Science and Engineering

Magnet,with383,which share a building in Dallas, as well as the City Honors School in Buffalo,

N.Y., which grew out of volunteer evening minars for students. And it includes alternative

schools with students lected by lottery(抽签)，such as H-B Woodlawn in Arlington, Va. And

most noticeable of all, there is the phenomenon of large urban and suburban high schools that

have split up into smaller units of a few hundred, generally houd in the same grounds that once

boasted thousands of students all marching to the same band.

Hillsdale High School in San Mateo, Calif, is one of tho, ranking No.423—among the top

2% in the country—on Newsweek’s annual ranking of America’s top high schools. The success of

small schools is apparent in the listings. Ten years ago, when the first Newsweek list bad on

college-level test participation was published, only three of the top 100 schools had graduating

Class smaller than 100 students. This year there are 22. Nearly 250 schools on the

full ,Newsweek list of the top 5% of schools nationally had fewer than 200 graduates in 2007.

Although many of Hillsdale’s students came from wealthy houholds, by the late 1990

average test scores were sliding and it had earned the unaffectionate nickname (绰号) “Hillsjail. ”

Jeff Gilbert. A Hillsdale teacher who became principal last year, remembers sitting with other

teachers watching students file out of a graduation ceremony and asking one another in

astonishment, “How did that student graduate?”

In the end, the superintendents agreed to provide the data we sought, which is, after all,

public information. There is, in our view, no real dispute here, we are all eking the same thing,

which is schools that better rve our children and our nation by encouraging students to tackle

tough subjects under the guidance of gifted teachers. And if we keep working toward that goal,

someday, perhaps a list won’t be necessary.
