U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan recognized 304 schools as 2011 National Blue Ribbon Schools. Of the 49 Private Blue Ribbon Schools recognized this year, 46 of the schools were Catholic schools.

 The No Child Left Behind - Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private K-12 schools that are either academically superior in their states or demonstrate dramatic gains in student achievement.

"Our nation has a responsibility to help all children realize their full potential," Duncan said. "Schools honored with the Blue Ribbon Schools award are committed to achievement and to ensuring that students learn and succeed. Their work reflects the conviction that every child has promise and must receive a quality education."   Congratulations to all schools who were honored.
