Evanston has made another national top 10 list — this time as one of the best suburbs for schools.

The real estate website Movoto says Evanston came in seventh on its list — which is based on a mash up of  per-pupil spending, teacher-student ratio, high school graduation rate and test scores.

At the very top of the list was the Boston suburb of Newton, Mass. Three Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C. also made the top 10, along with two towns in Minnesota, and one each in Ohio, Wisconsin and Texas.
