  The California Distinguished Schools recognition program honors 
public schools that go above and beyond to close education gaps, 
provide exemplary instruction, and innovate education systems to help 
create better outcomes for our students.
  Our students are our future, and I am so proud to see these inspiring 
schools receive the recognition they deserve.
  The students, teachers, and staff at these distinguished schools are 
to be commended for their dedication and hard work. I congratulate them 
on this tremendous achievement.
