Iowa’s public school system is one of the best in the country, according to an analysis by the personal-finance website WalletHub.
Iowa is ranked 11th on WalletHub’s list of “Best School Systems in America.” The report examined each state across 17 metrics, ranging from student-teacher ratio to average SAT and ACT scores to dropout rate. Iowa has the lowest dropout rate in the country at 9.5 percent.
The report places Massachusetts at the top of the list of states with the best school systems — with New Jersey, Connecticut, Vermont, and Wisconsin rounding out the top five.
