Congratulations Stono Park!
The State Department of Education announced today that it has selected
Stono Park Elementary and four other schools from around the state to
apply for the US Department of Education's Blue Ribbon School
awards! The program recognizes public and private schools
that are academically superior or demonstrate dramatic gains in student
achievement.
Stono Park was selected as a school with high student achievement
despite the fact that more than 40% of its students come from
disadvantaged backgrounds. Winning schools will be announced next
fall.
In a message to Principal Stephanie Strous, Associate
Superintendent Darrell Johnson wrote that "all of District 10-4 is
extremely proud of Stono Park Elementary. Hard work pays off and
is rewarded, keep up the excellent effort!"
