Additionally, LHS has been voted “Best Public School” in the Headliner Awards, presented by the St. Louis-Post Dispatch. Lindbergh received the most votes overall in the education category, which also includes private schools, colleges and universities.
“Lindbergh High School teachers and staff ensure that our students receive the best personalized education for our students in order to prepare them for outside the classroom,” said LHS Principal Dr. Eric Cochran. “We are proud that we are recognized as one of the best schools in the nation and the state of Missouri.”
The U.S. News rankings utilize indicators including college readiness, college curriculum, math and reading proficiency and performance, underserved student performance, and graduation rate.
The methodology recognizes schools that serve all students well, not only those who are college bound, and schools that produce measurable academic outcomes to show that they are educating students well and preparing them for successful futures.
