WASHINGTON, Aug. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in education rankings, announced the 2025-2026 Best High Schools rankings today. The rankings evaluate nearly 24,000 eligible public high schools at the national, state and local levels, with nearly 18,000 ranked.

Specialized Charter School Rankings: In addition to including charter schools in the overall national rankings, U.S. News has released a separate dedicated national ranking specifically for the Best Charter Schools. "Students and families need data to help them make one of the most important decisions of their academic journey. Our Best High Schools rankings provide the insights to help them identify schools that will prepare students for college success," says LaMont Jones, Ed.D., managing editor for education at U.S. News. "Access to information isn't just helpful— it's essential for planning a student's future." The 2025-2026 Best High Schools national rankings identify top public schools based on six key performance indicators, including student achievement on state-required assessments, strong graduation rates, and college readiness measures. Schools are evaluated on how effectively they serve all students, including underserved populations, with college readiness specifically measured through student participation and performance on Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate exams. The rankings consider curriculum breadth and overall student outcomes as well.

Kim Jong-kook's fiancee is a cosmetics CEO from LA?
19 Aug - Kim Jong-kook has been generating buzz online with his surprise marriage announcement, but curiosity is rising online about the identity of his bride-to-be, as no personal information about his girlfriend has been released. Speculations are rife on the identity of his fiancee since the revelation, with some netizens claiming that his bride-to-be is a "38-year-old woman from LA who is the CEO of a cosmetics company." Many stated that this has been first revealed by Kim's close friend Cha Tae-hyun on various entertainment shows, albeit jokingly, with the actor commenting about how the singer "goes to LA often." In 2020, a netizen who claimed to be a college student living in LA revealed that they had seen Kim buying coffee with a Korean-American woman there. There are also indications that Kim has been hinting at his wedding preparations on several entertainment programmes recently, including the purchase of an expensive home. The 49-year-old surprised many on 18 August when he suddenly decided to announce that he is getting married. "The wedding will take place sometime soon on a scale that is not too big with family, close friends, and a few acquaintances. Thanks to the fans who have been my greatest strength for such a long time, I am getting married and taking on a new challenge in life again."
