The wealthiest school districts in the country tend to be the worst.


Could it be that the wealthy in those locations predominately send their children to private schools. Public schools aren't a priority for the super rich.


Definitely not the case in the Bay Area -- Palo Alto, Piedmont, Orinda are wealthy and have some of the best schools.


Not wealthy residents. Wealthy school districts. LAUSD spends substantially more than Palo Alto per student.

Out of the top 5, only Montgomery County has a high-income student population.
