We are pleased to announce that Seven Hills Preparatory Academy has been named a 2022 National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education!
The National Blue Ribbon School Program is a prestigious award that recognizes schools for academic excellence or their progress in closing achievement gaps. Seven Hills’ Bloomington campus is proud to be designated as an Exemplary High Performing School nationally. Public schools are nominated by their Chief State School Officer and are then certified to ensure they meet the requirements established by the U.S. Department of Education. Seven Hills representatives will receive this award in a formal ceremony in Washington D.C. in November of 2022.
Seven Hills is proud to have achieved this coveted status by engaging students deeply and inclusively in a rigorous classical education, through its care for academic excellence for all, and commitment to its mission and vision in daily actions and decisions. This recognition affirms the dedication and performance of the collective staff, students, and families to continue to make it an award-winning, high-quality, outstanding charter public school in Minnesota and the United States
Congratulations, Seven Hills!
