Where does your children's school rank? Complete Placer County school ratings.

I can't believe it's already October, the time of year when the leaves hint at changing colors, we put on a sweater on chilly nights, and the kids have been back to school for a few weeks.  When it comes to those schools, it's nice to know they are in the best learning environment possible, and our Placer County schools are consistently ranked well in California and the nation, some even award-winning.  However, there are some better than others, so it's important to take a hard look at the quality of each institution.
