National Blue Ribbon School (1991, 1996, 2002, 2010, 2016)
Blue Ribbon Schools are nationally recognized as some of America's most successful schools. The award acknowledges and validates the hard work of students, staff members, families, and communities in reaching high levels of student achievement. Moreover, Blue Ribbon Schools report a renewed sense of pride and accomplishment at their school. They may be sought out as mentors to others schools or may find that receiving grants and raising funds is a little easier. Communities often report that the award makes their neighborhood a more desirable place to live because parents want their children to attend a Blue Ribbon School—and real estate agents use the Blue Ribbon award as a selling point for those neighborhoods.

Bonner Character Counts Award (2011)
The purpose behind our recognition award is to recognize exemplary local schools where practices and emphases have been planned to enhance the moral thinking and behavior of students. It is not specifically designed to compare schools, but rather to encourage all schools to participate in well-designed activities for students. Our expectation is that any school, regardless of its population or its philosophical orientation can offer well-planned programs that enable students to participate fully and become active in the school community.
