Blue Ribbon Award

On October 2, First Street Elementary School was named a 2007 NoChild Left Behind - Blue Ribbon School.  The program, which is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education, honors public and private K-12 schools that are either academically superior in their state or that demonstrate dramatic gains in student achievement. 

Dr. Dawn Nicolaus has also been named as a presenter at the November ceremony that honors award winning schools.  This will be a professional learning experience through which she will share some of the effective practices that have led to First Street being named a Blue Ribbon School.
