I also think that the new Common Core way of teaching has lowered the scores across the nation. This is a trend everywhere.
You are seeing the effects of the transition lately compounded by uncertainty over the State's direction with CC. Staying the course and working through the transition are necessary to see any benefits from a new standard.
If you're asking about which has the best scores, it's clearly Green Hope. But if you're asking if Green Hope produces the best scores, that's entirely different. Green Hope has a student base that would achieve in any high school. They are abnormally clustered together there.
Ok. Thanks everyone. But which one is good among Green Hope HS vs Apex Hs vs Cary HS?
Is your child currently in high school?
How are his/her grades currently?
Does he/she struggle in school?
I ask because if you said "kid is in high school, grades are excellent, doesn't struggle in school" I'd tell you that you might as well not worry about which high school to attend at all.

It's pretty much a similar experience across these three schools. It isn't like a choice between Harvard/ NCSU/ Wake Tech. Given WCPSS' quirky and changing assignment policies, I wouldn't make your choice of HS a key driver of where to buy RE.
I wouldn't make a decision on where to buy a house based on a high school, especially if they aren't in high school yet. Around here, assignment policies can change from year to year and new schools are always getting built, so you could pick an area that has a particular high school in it and by the time they are in high school they could wind up in a different one than you expected.
My kid is not in high school but we are trying to buy a house and trying to figure out which area to settle in
You aren't going to find a bad school in Cary....and won't find many in all of Wake County (I admit, I am not a fan of Knightdale, but I hear they are working on it)......and if it's many years before your student in in high school...it could be an entire new school anyway.
If you are coming from an area that has all these small school districts in one county, it can seem strange....but really...this works out very well.
