Grant Elementary Receives Academic Achievement AwardCongratulations to Dorothy Grant Elementary School for earning the California Title I Academic Achievement Award. Grant was one of twenty-two schools in Riverside and San Bernardino counties and among 200 statewide selected for the honor which is given only to schools receiving federal Title I funds. The State notified the schools back in December and they were honored at a special award ceremony during the annual California Title I Conference in Anaheim on April 27-28, 2009. Schools must demonstrate that all of their students are making significant progress toward proficiency on California's academic standards tests. In addition, students with socioeconomic disadvantages must have doubled achievement scores set for them for two consecutive years. "These schools deserve high praise for improving student achievement," State Superintendent of Public Instruction Jack O'Connell. "They have addressed barriers to student success and were able to create a school environment conducive to learning. In congratulate the teachers, staff, paraprofessionals, parents, and students who all worked hard this past year to improve. I hold these schools up as models for their success in ensuring that all students without regard to race, economic status, or physical or mental challenges are given the kind of education that allows them to achieve to their fullest potential."
