CONGRATULATIONS to two Alpha Plus Schools -- Carnegie Elementary School in Caddo County and Flower Mound Elementary School in Comanche County -- for being selected as National Blue Ribbon Schools. These join previous honorees that continue using Alpha Plus tools: Central High (BRS 2012-13) and Bishop (BRS 2010-11).
Both schools qualified for the "Exemplary High Performing Schools" award because they have excelled in state test scores while at least 40% of students are economically disadvantaged. They are among 285 public and 50 private schools that will be honored in ceremonies on Nov. 9-10 at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C.
