Dallas ISD is proud to announce that two district schools have earned 2023 National Blue Ribbon School awards. Rosemont Upper School and Trinity Heights Talented and Gifted are among just 29 schools in Texas and 353 nationwide to receive this prestigious recognition.
“The honorees for our 2023 National Blue Ribbon Schools Award have set a national example for what it means to raise the bar in education,” said U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona. “The leaders, educators, and staff at our National Blue Ribbon Schools continually inspire me with their dedication to fostering academic excellence and building positive school cultures that support students of all backgrounds to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.”
The U.S. Department of Education awards the Blue Ribbon to schools based on their overall academic performance or progress in closing achievement gaps.
Up to 420 schools may be nominated each year. The Department invites nominations for the National Blue Ribbon Schools award from the top education officials in all states, the District of Columbia, U.S. territories, the Department of Defense Education Activity, and the Bureau of Indian Education.
