As stated in my previous post, NCSSM is not a charter. It is a selective public high school. A more detailed description and summary of their history is on their website at https://www.ncssm.edu/about/impact/our-history – “It was the first school of its kind — a public, residential high school welcoming students from across the state to study a specialized curriculum emphasizing science and mathematics but also offering humanities courses, athletics, and extracurricular opportunities.”
I’m not sure why you keep repeating this. I’ve stated the NCSSM is selective in each post in which I’ve mentioned the HS, and have stated multiple times in multiple posts that this selectivity is the key reason why NCSSM and most other so called “feeder” HSs have a large number of HYPSM… type college acceptances. If someone in this thread has claimed otherwise, I have not seen the post.
I never said they ranked students within the class. I only quoted your previous post that talked about elite colleges seeing and caring about the rank because state law requires the rank be listed on transcripts.
