We are working to officially recognize the schools honored as National Blue Ribbon Schools in 2025 and to celebrate the history of this important program that highlights academic excellence and closing achievement gaps. Our goal is to commend the educators and communities behind these achievements and to urge the Secretary of Education to reinstate the program for the benefit of schools nationwide.
