(KAIR)--An area school has received national recognition.
The Bradley Elementary School in Fort Leavenworth is among six Kansas schools recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as National Blue Ribbon Schools for 2020.
According to a release from the Department of Education, the recognition is based on a school’s overall academic progress and performance in closing achievement gaps among students subgroups.
The release says the Blue Ribbon program recognizes public and private elementary, middle and high schools in one of two performance categories: Exemplary High Performing and Exemplary Achievement Gap Closing.
All Kansas schools were recognized in the Exemplary High Performing Schools category.
367 schools across the United States were designated this year as National Blue Ribbon Schools.
An awards ceremony will be held virtually on November 12th and 13th.
