" Pittsford Mendon High School is ranked the 39th best public high school (with an average of 3.584 AP credits per student) in the nation, and Pittsford Sutherland High School is ranked the 78th best (with an average of 2.967 AP credits per student)."

i see. so the study is based simply on number of students who took the AP test...but not based at all on scores. Kingturtle 16:18, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
When a statistic is presented that is misleading, an explanation should be provided.
A clarification needs to be made that student achievement is not involved at all in this ratio. The ratio involves only attempts, and not successes. Kingturtle ( talk) 11:58, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
I do not understand an edit made today by an editor at 131.191.104.112. In the first sentence of the introduction, Pittsford had been described as an "affluent" suburb. Most people who live in the Rochester region would agree with that characterization. Today's edit changed this to "semi-affluent." I'm not sure I've come across that term before, or understand what it's supposed to mean. In one sense I suppose "affluence" is in the eye of the beholder. However, the U.S. Census Bureau's data shows that Pittsford has the highest median household income of any town in Monroe County, New York, at $106,134. See http://factfinder.census.gov/bkmk/cf/1.0/en/place/Pittsford town, Monroe County, New York/ALL
Does that qualify it as affluent? Compared to Beverly Hills, or Manhattan, probably not. But in the context of the region, and likely for all of New York outside the New York City/Hudson Valley region, most likely it does.
Perhaps the best approach might be to omit altogether the reference to affluence in the introductory sentence, and let the census data speak for itself where it's discussed further along in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pittsfordite ( talk • contribs) 21:33, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
Are the Notable People in any particular order? If it is order of importance, then Abby Wambach should be at or near the top, considering her many accomplishments, like holding the world record for international goals for both female and male soccer players with 184 goal (there's much more on her Wikipedia page). 3Clara18,21 ( talk) 03:21, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
