​Blue Ribbon Award-Winning School

The Stratton Elementary School was the recipient of the 2010 U.S. Department of Education Blue Ribbon Award. The Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private elementary, middle and high 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. The program is part of a larger Department of Education effort to identify and disseminate knowledge about best school leadership and teaching practices. (U.S. Dept. of Educ.)
