I've heard of some families gaming this system by having their students attend less competitive high schools in order to improve their rank.

The problem I see with that is that, if you are rich enough to game the system that way, you are probably rich enough to be gaming the system in order to get your kids into something other than a state school.

Unless we involve football, for example. Sports break the model.
