Jackson named Blue Ribbon School
George A Jackson Elementary School was designated an Exemplary High Performing National Blue Ribbon School for 2023 by U. S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona. Jackson is one of 353 schools in the nation, one of 22 schools from New York, and one of only three on Long Island to be recognized in 2023. “On behalf of the teachers and staff, we are humbled by this recognition and appreciative of the support we continue to receive from our school community. This award is for all of us to be proud of,” said Jackson Principal Alex Rivera. “There are a lot of thanks to pass around starting with our Board of Education. They support each of the schools in ensuring that we have all we need to provide the very best education for our students. Thank you to our Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Grishman,
who encourages and supports us in making magic happen in our classrooms every day. Thank you to our Central Administration and fellow district administrators for providing us with the resources needed to foster creativity and excitement in all our programs. A very big thank you to our amazing teachers and school staff who work hard each day to provide an education that is second to none.” The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program recognizes public and private elementary, middle, and high schools based on their overall academic excellence or their progress in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups. Every year, the U. S. Department of Education seeks out and celebrates great American schools, schools demonstrating that all students can achieve to high levels.
