Schools Honored at New York Stock Exchange
Thirty-two Virginia high schools were honored in the "100 Best W!se High Schools Teaching Personal Finance" during a ceremony on May 20 at the New York Stock Exchange. Four schools placed in the top 25: Heritage High and Menchville High in Newport News, Halifax County High in Halifax County and Holston High in Washington County. The winners were chosen by Working in Support of Education (W!se), a New York-based educational organization.
Virginia's public schools are beginning a new trend line with the implementation of more challenging standards and assessments. The goal is to build on the progress already made under the Standards of Learning program and ensure that all graduates possess the knowledge and skills needed for success in college and the workplace.
