Breaking News: Good Hope receives National Blue Ribbon Award
Published on Sep 28, 2017 14:43

In a press release this afternoon, US Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos announced that Good Hope Middle School is one of 342 schools from across the country to receive the 2017 National Blue Ribbon Award for Excellence.  “National Blue Ribbon Schools are active demonstrations of preparing every child for a bright future,” said DeVos. She went on to say, “You are visionaries, innovators and leaders. You have much to teach us: some of you personalize student learning, others engage parents and communities in the work and life of your local schools and still others develop strong and forward-thinking leaders from among your teaching staff.”

This is a huge honor for our school, and a great tribute to the amazing, creative, hard-working, and supportive students, staff, administrators, parents, and community members that have made Good Hope such a special place in which to learn and grow.  

Good Hope is one of 18 designated schools from Pennsylvania, and one of only two middle schools from the state to receive the designation this year.
