FAIRFIELD - Dan O. Root Elementary School has been recognized as a 2008 California Distinguished School, state Superintendent of Schools Jack O'Connell announced Wednesday.
The Suisun City school is one of 343 exemplary public elementary schools in the state to receive the recognition. Principal Jodie Phan said it's an exciting time for the school.
'It's a huge honor for us as a school,' Phan said. 'We have programs in place to meet the needs of all our students and we're always looking for what's best for our kids.'
Schools become eligible for the recognition based on their Academic Performance Index and Adequate Yearly Progress results of standardized testing.
Dan O. Root and Scandia Elementary School of the Travis Unified School District were the only two elementary schools in Solano County to receive the recognition.
