BCPS High Schools Ranked Among the Best in the Nation by U.S. News & World Report

Fifteen Broward County Public Schools high schools are among the top 27% of all ranked high schools in the nation in the 2025/26 edition of U.S. News and World Report’s showcase on Best High Schools. Topping the list for BCPS are Millennium 6-12 Collegiate Academy (ranked #4 in Florida and #56 in the nation) and Pompano Beach High School (ranked #21 in Florida and #200 in the nation). Rounding out the top five ranked high schools across BCPS are William T. McFatter Technical High School, Cypress Bay High School, and Atlantic Technical High School.

U.S. News & World Report evaluated more than 24,000 public high schools in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Nearly 18,000 high schools were ranked based on six factors: college readiness, state assessment proficiency, state assessment performance, college curriculum breadth, underserved student performance and graduation rates. 

“We are incredibly proud that our high schools are consistently recognized for being among the best in the nation,” said BCPS Superintendent Dr. Howard Hepburn. “These rankings reflect the hard work of our students; the dedication of our teachers, administrators and staff; and the support from our families and the community. They also highlight the world-class education our students receive to prepare them for success in college and careers.”
