<aok> correct most of the sites that you have 2 pay or register arent worth much, the state dept of Edu has better ranking, scores, titleI, demographics, etc

EDU.gov- parents

US Dept of EDU link to NY schools

Principals have told me that many websites about school rankings are commercial based and the data may not be raw.

The most factual info seems to come from your state dept of ed...google 'NY state dept of ed' or whatever your state is, and you should find links to scores data, trends, demographics, reduced lunch program, class sizes, ed level of teachers, even education level of parents, basically just about everything and more, you ever wanted to know about any one state's schools workings and attendees.

Check out www.greatschools.net

Here is the site for Elementary School rankings by state. This site is neat because you can look at rankings for your individual schools too.

www.psk12.com/rating/USthreeRsphp/STATE_...tary_CountyID_0.html

When I searched for the info you were requesting, I found several sites. Here's my top three:
1. www.psk12.com/rating/index.php

2. www.statestats.com/edpress/htm

3. www.asbj.com/evs/06state.html

Psk12, I think, is the better site.

Does anyone know where to find the information on where our states are ranked in education. I am interested in the elementary schools the most. Thank you in advance for your help.
