Wylandville Elementary wins National Blue Ribbon award
Wylandville Elementary School was named a National Blue Ribbon School because of its high performance.
The Canon-McMillan school was one of 304 schools across the country recognized Thursday by U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. The award honors schools whose students achieve at very high levels or have made significant progress and helped close gaps in achievement especially among disadvantaged and minority students.
“Schools honored with the Blue Ribbon Schools award are committed to achievement and to ensuring that students learn and succeed,” Duncan said in a news release. “Their work reflects the conviction that every child has promise and must receive a quality education.”
