I wish I had thought of this when I was deciding which high school to graduate from. I first went to the one closest to my house, and for the year I was there I was first in my class. Then I had the opportunity to bus to a "better" high school with lots of honors and AP classes, so I transferred. I probably could have been valedictorian had I stayed at my original high school. Oh well, I turned out ok anyway.
