Who ever said schools in Buffalo 'aren't so good?'

Delano schools are rated high in terms of academics, but please take those numbers with a grain of salt, as often times they are skewed and they don't take in affect many externalities. I grew up in St. Michael-Albertville MN, which in my honest opinion have an excellent school system. They preach education, athletics, discipline, and community, while also providing educated teachers and state of the art school supplies and technology. Buffalo has a pretty new high school that is HUGE, but also has a huge student population. Delano is similar to what STMA does, but they are much smaller. Being an STMA student athlete for 6 years I had the chance to visit Wright COunty Conference schools many, many times such as Delano, Dassel Cokato, Glecoe Silver Lake, Becker, Watertown Mayer...and I can tell you that out of them Delano seemed to be the best. Not as good as STMA though.
