21 Local Schools Named ‘Blue Ribbon Schools'

Twenty-one schools in D.C., Maryland and Virginia - some public, some private and one charter - have been named "Blue Ribbon Schools" by the U.S. Department of Education.

The blue ribbon designation means the schools show overall academic excellence, or have made progress in closing achievement gaps among different groups of students.

Some of the schools were named "exemplary high-performing schools,"
