This year, the selection criteria for the Distinguished School program were more stringent than ever. Schools wrote a substantive narrative application and then were subject to an extensive site validation. ˜Most heartening, many of the schools we are recognizing today as the best of the best have overcome significant educational challenges, showing that it is possible to provide opportunities for success to all students, OConnell said.
