The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program recognizes public and private elementary, middle, and high schools based on their overall academic excellence or their progress in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups.  The National Blue Ribbon School award affirms the hard work of students, educators, families, and communities in creating safe and welcoming schools where students master challenging content. The National Blue Ribbon School flag gracing an entry or flying overhead is a widely recognized symbol of exemplary teaching and learning. Mann Elementary became a National Blue Ribbon School in 2016.

Project Lead the Way is excited and privileged to recognize Mann Elementary as a 2019-20 PLTW Distinguished School. This recognition means you are empowering students to thrive in an evolving world and achieving exemplary results from your PLTW Launch programs.
