Out of the 337 total schools to be named a 2014 National Blue Ribbon School, Saint Viator is one of 48 high schools. President Rev. Corey Brost, C.S.V. and Principal Eileen Manno will travel to Washington, D.C., Nov. 10-11, to accept this award on behalf of the Saint Viator High School community.

This Blue Ribbon award recognizes Saint Viator High School's ongoing commitment to the academic, spiritual and emotional growth of its students by providing the curriculum, technology, facilities and programs students need to succeed in an ever-changing world. Saint Viator was recognized for the integration of technology into curriculum, the Reverend Mark R. Francis, C.S.V. International Program, the Campus Ministry program, the Christian Service program, and the Father Louis Querbes Scholars program. Also highlighted were the Class of 2014's composite ACT scores and the drug testing program.

"I am very proud to be part of the Saint Viator High School community," said Brost. "This award recognizes the hard work, dedication and success of our administration, faculty, staff and all our students. Academic excellence, faith formation, increased student achievement and building a curriculum that will prepare our students to face the realities of life in the 21st century remain the focus of everything that we do at Saint Viator High School. We are committed to building an even stronger curriculum and academic program for the future. My deep thanks go to everyone who has helped Saint Viator to achieve this singular recognition."
