International Academy is nation's 9th-best public high school

Against overwhelming odds, the International Academy in Bloomfield Hills is the no. 9 ranked public high school in the nation in 2014, according to U.S. News & World Report.

Excerpt:

"We started out by  analyzing 31,242 public high schools in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. That number was reduced to 19,411 schools, which  is the total number of public high schools across the country  that had high enough 12th-grade enrollment and sufficient data from the 2011-2012 school  year to be  eligible for the rankings."

Several other Metro Detroit schools also ranked well nationally.
