We are pleased to announce that Helena High School has been named the newest 2025 Blue Ribbon Lighthouse School in the nation! Based on the Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence (BRSE) national assessment process, our school has met the criteria in nine performance areas. Designation as a Blue Ribbon Lighthouse School lasts for five years, at which time our school will be eligible for renewal. Blue Ribbon Lighthouse Schools commit to sharing expertise and exemplary practices with other schools on a local, regional, and national level as well as providing mentoring and networking to schools seeking guidance and assistance in school improvement initiatives.
Our school and teachers will be featured on the Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence website: www.blueribbonschools.com. Through this initiative, information from America’s best schools will be shared with other schools around the country. We are honored to receive such a prestigious award, and we want to say a huge thanks to our students, faculty, and community for all of your support.
Please complete the survey using the unique codes that were given out on 1/15 during 3rd period. If you are unable to locate your letter with your codes, we can help! Teachers can provide students with their code. Parents/families can contact the main office for their code.
