What schools (private or public) outperform Franklin? Since it’s a lot.

BFHS has ridiculous standards to get in, and it’s no secret to be the best school you have to have the best students.

Additionally, they weed out their students that lag behind. I would say they lose anywhere from 20-30 kids a graduating class due to grade retention....even shrinking their accepted best students to the best of the best prior to graduating.

That's simply not true. Jesuit is essentially the only school you can unequivocally put above Ben Franklin in the entire state. Jesuit had the most National Merit Scholarship semifinalists in the state with 35. Ben Franklin had 17. No one else had more than 9.
