Three Bay Area schools have been recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as 2019 “Blue Ribbon” schools — a prestigious designation based on a school’s academic performance or progress in closing achievement gaps among groups of students.

San Jose’s Forest Hill Elementary School, part of the Campbell Union School District, made the list of 30 California Blue Ribbon Schools, as did Yu Ming Charter School in Oakland and Lowell Alternative High School in San Francisco.
