Brownsburg’s Reagan Elementary Named a National Blue Ribbon School

U.S. Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos, announced today that Reagan Elementary has been named a 2018 National Blue Ribbon School. Reagan Elementary is one among 349 public and private schools in the country, and only 7 in Indiana, receiving this honor.

Schools are nominated for the award by the state department of education, and then complete a comprehensive application about school practices. Schools may apply for status as Exemplary High Performing—among the top schools in a state—or Exemplary Achievement Gap Closing—schools making the fastest progress in their state in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups.

Reagan Elementary principal Scott Chambers and members of the staff will represent Brownsburg Schools at a two-day awards ceremony in Washington, D.C., to celebrate this achievement.
