Thornhill Recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School
September 28, 2016
Thornhill Elementary School is proud to announce it is one of 329 schools recognized today by U.S. Secretary of Education John B. King as a National Blue Ribbon School for 2016 based on overall academic excellence.
The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private elementary, middle, and high schools where students achieve very high learning standards or are making notable improvements in closing the achievement gap. The prestigious award affirms the tremendous work of the Thornhill community — from the administration and faculty to staff, students and parents — in creating an environment where students feel safe, welcome, and nurtured, and where they can thrive in mastering challenging content. The National Blue Ribbon Schools flag gracing a school’s building is a widely recognized symbol of exemplary teaching and learning.
