  • Blue Ribbon Schools Program
    Archived Information BLUE RIBBON SCHOOLS PROGRAM Schools Recognized 1982-1983 Through 1999-2002 For further information, contact: Blue Ribbon Schools Program Knowledge Applications Division Office of Reform Assistance and Dissemination Office of Educational Research and Improvement U.S. Department of Education 555 New Jersey Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20208-5643 (202) 219-2149 BLUE RIBBON SCHOOLS PROGRAM Purpose: Since the Blue Ribbon Schools Program was established by the Secretary of Education in 1982, it has developed into a national school improvement strategy with three purposes. First, it identifies and recognizes outstanding public and private schools across the nation. Second, the program makes research-based effectiveness criteria available to all schools so they can assess themselves and plan improvements. Third, the program encourages schools, both within and among themselves, to share information about best practices based on a common understanding of criteria related to educational success. Blue Ribbon Schools are models of both excellence and equity. To be recognized, a school must demonstrate a strong commitment to educational excellence for all students. The program welcomes applications from schools that have demonstrated sustained success in achieving these values, as well as schools that have overcome obstacles and can provide evidence of significant improvements. Which Schools May Be Nominated? Public and private schools serving grades K-12 from the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, as well as Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Department of Defense Dependents Schools, may be nominated. Elementary and secondary schools are eligible to participate in alternate years. Middle schools participate in program with secondary schools.
