During an event held on May 6 in Montgomery, the Council for Leaders in Alabama Schools (CLAS) recognized 32 schools from across the state as Schools of Distinction for 2023, including Ramsay IB High School and Minor Elementary School from Birmingham City Schools.
Created in 2001, the CLAS Banner Schools program spotlights schools in Alabama that demonstrate exceptional programs and services for students. Schools are nominated by their superintendents, with 240 schools nominated across the state.
Ramsay and Minor were among four schools from State School Board District 4 to earn the designation.
“Congratulations to these wonderful Alabama public schools which provide excellent examples of the significant learning opportunities taking place in public education in Alabama. Further, the stakeholders at every school are to be commended for striving for excellence daily,” comments Vic Wilson, Ed.D., executive director of the Council for Leaders in Alabama Schools.
