Which are the Best Public High Schools in New York City? We have looked into the best public high schools in New York. Most of the public schools are reported to have not shown good performance in the field of education but the fact remains that there are public schools who have been thriving and preparing the students for a better future. The first most important aspect of public school underperforming is due to lack of funds in appointing a good number of teachers and the lack of infrastructure. It is not possible for parents to send their kids to private schools, as they are extremely costly and hence they are forced to send them to public schools. If you want to come up in such type of environments you have to work hard against all odds.
