Off the heels of winning the No Child Left Behind Blue Ribbon Award a couple of years ago, Milltown Elementary School celebrated another milestone achievement last week after becoming a Four-Star School by the Indiana Dept. of Education.
Whereas the Blue Ribbon program honors public and private K-12 schools that are either academically superior in their state or demonstrate dramatic gains in student achievement, the Four Star program recognizes schools that have demonstrated academic excellence (by placing in the state upper quartile), high student attendance rates, mathematics proficiency scores and language arts proficiency scores.
