Local Schools Recognized for Getting Students Ready for College
SCHOOL NEWS LOCAL SCHOOLS RECOGNIZED FOR GETTING STUDENTS READY FOR COLLEGE
GreatSchools.org, a nonprofit that helps parents unlock educational opportunities for their children recently released its 2021 GreatSchools College Success Awards. Now in its fourth year, the GreatSchools College Success Award recognizes and celebrates public high schools across the country that excel at helping students enroll and succeed in college. In 2021, 1,838 schools from 25 states won the annual College Success Award.
This unique award, based on high school and postsecondary data provided by state education agencies, offers a snapshot of how well a high school prepares its students to enroll in college, succeed with college-level coursework, and continue into their second year.
To celebrate schools with a multi-year track record of postsecondary success, GreatSchools also added an additional, elevated level of distinction: the College Success Award – Gold. Gold awardees have won two or more College Success Awards since the program began, with at least one win in 2020 or 2021. 11 Broward County Public Schools were recognized this year. They include: • Atlantic Technical College & High School • Broward Virtual School • College Academy at Broward College • Cypress Bay High School • Everglades High School • Fort Lauderdale High School • Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School • Nova High School • Pompano Beach Institute of International Studies • West Broward High School • Western High School
