Green Mountain
Recognized by State as "School of Distinction" AGAIN!!




State School Supt. Terry Bergeson applauds Green Mountain School as one of 26 “amazing” schools in Washington State.


        Green Mountain School has been named one of 26 “Schools of Distinction” by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) that have won the award for two years running for on-going improvements in student reading and mathematics over the past several years. There are over 2600 schools in Washington.
         Dr. Grubbs noted: "We are very proud of the students and staff at Green Mountain. Our strong partnership with our parents and community, targeted instruction to assessed needs, and hard work on the part of everyone resulted in this achievement. We are blessed to be in a community where education is supported. Children realize obtaining a good education is very important and achieve accordingly.”
     Teacher Nancy Murry whose seventh grade class was singled out for 100% achievement on the WASL in Reading and Mathematics, noted that earning the award is a “testimony to the hard work of our students and teachers as well as the parents who support them.”

   OSPI’s Schools of Distinction represent the top 5 percent of elementary, middle and high schools whose students have shown outstanding growth in both reading and mathematics skills during a six-year period.  To be considered for the award, each school had to meet the current year’s state learning targets on the Washington Assessment of Student Learning for students in both reading and mathematics.
         Additional information on the award program, and a list of all Schools of Distinction, can be found on the OSPI Web site at www.k12.wa.us.
