Summary:
|
Foothill Middle School and Concord High School are among the 193 middle schools and 180 high schools being honored under the state’s new Gold Ribbon Schools Awards Program, which is temporarily taking the place of the California Distinguished Schools Program while the state creates new assessment and accountability systems. The new award is recognizing middle and high schools this year and elementary schools in 2016.
Schools applied for the award based on a model program their school has adopted that includes standards-based activities, projects, strategies, and practices that can be replicated by other local educational agencies. The Gold Ribbon awards recognize California schools that have made gains in implementing the academic content and performance standards adopted by the State Board of Education. These include, the California Standards for English Language Arts and Mathematics, California English Language Development Standards, and Next Generation Science Standards.
For more information, including a complete list of schools, please visit the California Gold Ribbon Schools Program on the California Department of Education’s Web site at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/sr/gr/
