<p>Toughyear - Just out of curiosity, why did you cherry pick the selections you did? I clicked on the link expecting to be horrified that where my son is would be the 20th most dangerous – and it’s #49 on the full list. You omitted a whole bunch of schools; the only commonality being, apparently, that they aren’t the highly selective ones. But isn’t that odd? Doesn’t the safety of kids at less selective school count too? You can’t put any of this in context without seeing the rest of the list, and taking into account where schools are located (urban, rural, good or bad neighborhoods, etc.).</p>
