BLUE RIBBON LIGHTHOUSE SCHOOL AWARD

Blue Ribbon Lighthouse Schools serve as a beacon for exemplary achievements and contributions to ensure successful educational experiences for all children by shining a positive light on America's best schools and programs that work. Working together, education, business and government leaders have the ability to create an infrastructure that will provide a blueprint for excellence in education for all children, all schools and all states. Blue Ribbon Lighthouse Schools focus on locating successful best practices and programs that work in education to serve as a marker for schools that desire to be high performing beacons for our educational culture.

 

On February 11, 2004, Gretchen Whitney High School in Cerritos, California; Houston County High School in Warner Robins, Georgia; and Northwest High School in Justin, Texas were designated as Lighthouse Schools Charter Members in recognition of exemplary achievements and contributions to ensure a successful educational experience for all students. 

Blue Ribbon Lighthouse Schools will shape the future of education by facilitating alliances and creating an environment of positive change for all schools.
