@vickisocal It depends on the school. Our state has academic magnets/programs in many districts and also a statewide public boarding school that cater to the top 1-2% of the high achieving students through an application process enabling those high flyers to soar. Though the classes are rigorous, most of these kids are earning "A"s in AP, IB and Dual Credit and many are headed to Top 50 colleges and universities. The rest to public Honors colleges. Even the ones with comparatively lower GPAs.
These schools do not rank the class. The college AOs know the programs.
