Around here, we know Los Altos Schools are pretty special. It was that much sweeter, then, to attend a celebration at Oak School yesterday. Principal Amy Romem hosted two sessions to share with the students and parents her trip to Washington, DC to accept the President's Blue Ribbon School Award.
The Blue Ribbon program recognizes excellence in education. There are over 133,000 public schools in America. Only 219 public schools received this award, recognizing their academic achievement, the culuture of the school and exemplary work by the staff. The team at Oak - the teachers, staff, parents, students, and principal- should be congratulated for their outstanding work. Well done, Oak!
