New Jersey is home to the best public high school in the US for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), according to the US World & News report.
High Technology High School is a 9th through 12th grade school located in Lincroft, New Jersey.
The school describes itself as a "pre-engineering career academy that emphasizes the interconnections among mathematics, science, technology, and the humanities."
It boasts a 100% participation rate for Advance Placement (AP) exams, meaning all students at the school take at least one test. An impressive 98% of the class of 2016 scored a three or higher (five is the highest score) on their AP tests.
US News looked to schools that were designated as high performing on their 2017 Best High Schools rankings. The site then further ranked schools based on the number of student who took and passed a varied curriculum of college-level math and science courses. These STEM math and science courses included AP Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Computer Science, Statistics, and Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, and Physics.
