One of my schools was named an Ellbogen Meritorious School. For a school to have this distinction, it must have twenty percent of the teaching staff achieving National Board for Professional Teaching Certification or have eighty percent of the teaching staff and the principal summiting “scorable” entries. This is a great achievement for this small school and shows the commitment of the staff towards CES and its student base. The following is an article from the Wyoming Tribune Eagle about this achievement.

For those who are wondering, my entry was scorable and I am planning to continue the journey of become National Board certified.
Today I am starting my journey to get my National Board Certification and help
one of my schools (Carpenter Elementary School) to become an Ellbogen
Meritorious School. For a school to have this distinction, it must have twenty
percent of the teaching staff achieving National Board for Professional Teaching
Certification or have eighty percent of the teaching staff and the principal
summiting “scorable” entries. This will be a great achievement for this small
school and shows the commitment of the staff towards CES and its student base.
I will keep you updated on this journey that my colleagues and I are embarking.
Wish us luck!
