    While our rankings offer valuable information, we strongly suggest adding in in-person visits, talking to school leaders, and hearing from current parents. Every child is different, and the right fit goes beyond rankings.

     In these cases, we do our best to use data that is available to the public. On the other hand, schools that are actively involved in the ranking process can receive a more thorough assessment.
