High school recognized for graduation rate, test scores
For the second time, the U.S. Department of Education has named Haldane High School as a National Blue Ribbon School, one of 43 public high schools across the country and two in New York state (along with Bronxville) to receive the honor in 2023.
The awards were announced Sept. 15; Haldane High School also was recognized in 2016. Haldane Elementary was named a Blue Ribbon School in 1988 and the Garrison School was in 2010.
Haldane was named an “exemplary high-performing” school, meaning it has among the highest graduation rates in the state at 98 percent and its students are in the top 15 percent of state assessments in English and math. Schools are nominated by state departments of education.
