Friday, May 12, 2023 – All four elementary schools in the Mountain Brook school system were honored at the May State Department of Education Board Meeting in Montgomery on Thursday morning.

Each year, the Alabama State Department of Education recognizes schools for the Legislative School Performance Recognition Program.  The Legislative School Performance Recognition Program is designed to identify schools in one of two categories:

1. Schools that demonstrate high performance by being ranked in the top 25 percent of public schools, as ranked in the school grading system.

2. Schools that demonstrate exemplary progress by improving the overall annual ranking of the school by at least one letter grade, as ranked in the school grading system.

Brookwood Forest, Cherokee Bend, Crestline and Mountain Brook Elementary were all recognized as a Legislative School Performance Recognition Program School because the school grading system score or letter grade fell into the ‘Top 25 Category’ for the 2021-2022 school year.
