Share

A Fountain Valley school was one of 33 California schools to be nominated for national recognition.

The state superintendent of public instruction nominated Ethan B. Allen Elementary School, 16200 Bushard St., for the National Blue Ribbon Program.

The program honors elementary and secondary schools that show academic superiority and significant student achievement progress since 2006. The schools must also serve economically disadvantaged students.

The schools will find out in September if they will be honored.
