Ontario-Montclair School District schools receive awards

In the spring, Ontario-Montclair schools receiving Comprehensive Student Support grant funding submitted a year-end report that was reviewed by representatives from the California Department of Education Counseling, Student Support and Service-Learning Office.

Based on this review two district schools have been selected to receive a "Shining Star Award" for operating exemplary Comprehensive Student Support Programs.

The schools granted the "Shining Star Award" are Sultana and Vista Grande elementary schools.

Serrano and Wiltsey middle schools were also acknowledged for their programs and have received the "Outstanding Achievement Award."

The schools will be recognized at the Ready to Learn Conference in October.

In 2005-2006, the Outreach Consultant Program was placed in a block grant and was renamed the Comprehensive Student Support program.

Participants in the block grant were expected to meet the original grant requirements of employing full time Outreach Consultant.
