Honor Roll School

(Wilton, Connecticut) This is noteworthy. More than 700 students made the honor roll.

Nearly 61% of students at Wilton High School made it to the honor roll, according to a list released by officials Thursday. As of the beginning of the year, there were 1,263 students in the school.

It was a while ago but my recollections of high school are that usually less than 10 percent of the students were in the honor roll.


[Update]

Apparently, the Wilton High School experience is an aberration. According to today's New York Times, American 12th-graders are getting dumber. And everybody knows that you can't be dumb and on the honor roll at the same time. Right?
