In an annual ranking of Utah high schools, six of the top ten spots this year went to charter schools.
For a typical year, it’s not unusual to see a charter come in at No. 1 in the analysis by U.S. News and World Report. InTech Collegiate High School — which was designated the best in Utah for 2019 — has now earned that title four times in the last eight years.
But never before in recent memory have a majority of the top nods gone to charters over traditional public high schools.
