Tuesday, September 11, 2012
U.S. Rep. Steven C LaTourette (OH-14) said more than 300 public
and private schools have been named 2012 National Blue Ribbon
Schools. A total of four are are from Ohio, including Holy Family
School in Stow.
At the invitation of the Department of Education Secretary
Arne Duncan, the principal and one teacher from each school will be
invited to Washington, DC, for the November 12th
and 13th Recognition Ceremony. Representatives
from each school will receive a National Blue Ribbon Schools plaque
and a flag to signify its status.
The National Blue Ribbon School award honors public and private
elementary, middle and high schools whose students achieve at very
high levels or make significant improvements in their levels of
achievement. The program is part of a larger Department of
Education effort to identify and disseminate knowledge about best
school leadership and teaching practices.
"I congratulate Holy Family School in Stow for this wonderful
award," LaTourette said. "It's an honor that should be
enjoyed by school administrators, teachers, students, parents and
the community of Stow."
