Whitney High School recognized as a National Blue Ribbon honoree
Whitney High School Achieves Distinguished Honours
Whitney High School in Cerritos, California, has once again made headlines, earning the prestigious National Blue Ribbon Schools award for the seventh time. The school was recognised in the Exemplary High Performing Schools category, a testament to its consistent academic excellence.
The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program, a renowned initiative that recognises outstanding schools, celebrated its 39th year this year. Only 29 schools in California and 297 schools nationwide were bestowed with this honour.
The school's principal, Dr. Tuesday Stoffers, attributed the recognition to the high-quality instruction provided by the school's teachers and staff, the diligence of the students, and the strong support of the families.
In a separate recognition, U.S. News and World Report named Whitney High School as the top middle school in California in its 2025 Middle School Rankings. The ranking was based on student performance in math and reading/language arts state assessments.
BestSchools.org also recognised Whitney High School, ranking it as one of the top 50 public high schools in the United States. The recognition was based on a combination of factors, including student ACT and SAT scores.
U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona stated that the National Blue Ribbon Schools Award is a testament to the exceptional achievements of students and educators at each of these schools. ABC Unified School District Superintendent Dr. Gina Zietlow congratulated Principal Dr. Tuesday Stoffers and her team for earning the acclaimed designation.
The U.S. Department of Education also recognised two more schools in the ABC Unified School District, Carmenita Middle School and Wittmann Elementary School, as National Blue Ribbon Schools.
The award affirms the hard work of educators, families, and communities in creating school environments where students are challenged and engaged. A Middle School, classified as having grades 7-12, like Whitney High School, is a testament to the school's commitment to providing comprehensive education.
The recognition of Whitney High School as a top middle school by U.S. News and World Report is a separate recognition from the National Blue Ribbon Schools Program. While specific information about the President of the ABC Unified School District Board of Education is not currently available, it is advisable to consult the official website of the school district or local news sources for the latest updates. The U.S. Department of Education recognised Whitney High School as a National Blue Ribbon School on September 24, 2024.
