A School Where Grades Are Tops, But Test Scores Are Not

Students at the San Diego Metropolitan Career and Technical High School, known as the Met, were more likely to get As and Bs than kids at any San Diego high school last year. Nearly three out of four students had at least a B average in grades 10 to 12, almost twice the average at local schools. But Met students didn't have the highest scores on the range of tests eyed by colleges and the state. Emily Alpert, Voice of San Diego, Jan. 17, 2011
