RVE was one of 26 schools in Texas and 342 schools nationally to receive the award. There were only two other schools from the Rio Grande Valley recognized.

The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private elementary, middle and high schools where students achieve very high learning standards or are making notable improvements in closing the achievement gap.<\/p>\n

This coveted award affirms the hard work of educators, families and communities in creating safe and welcoming schools where students master challenging and engaging content.<\/p>\n

Now in its 35th year, the National Blue Ribbon Schools Program has bestowed recognition on more than 8,500 schools. All schools are honored in one of two performance categories, based on all student scores, subgroup student scores and graduation rates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
