Mason was one of thirteen San Diego Unified schools that were named to the California Business for Education Excellence (CBEE) 2009 Honor Roll.
The 2009 Honor Roll includes 1,304 California public elementary, middle and high schools that have been recognized by California’s business community for having demonstrated consistent high student academic achievement and have made significant progress toward closing achievement gaps among all their students. The Honor Roll is made up of two different awards, the Star Schools Award (395 schools) and Scholar Schools Award (909 schools).
These schools are the bright spots of hope in efforts to raise student academic achievement and close persistent achievement gaps, said Kirk Clark, executive director of CBEE. By highlighting them, recognizing their achievement and giving them a voice we hope other schools can learn from these proven practices and we can begin to take their success to scale throughout the state. |
