Senator Barrasso Commends Coffeen Elementary for Blue Ribbon Designation

In September, the U.S. Department of Education announced that Henry A. Coffeen Elementary School in Sheridan was designated an Exemplary High Performing National Blue Ribbon School for 2022. Coffeen Elementary is one of 297 schools in the nation and one of two schools from Wyoming to be recognized in 2022. U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-WY) visited the school Tuesday to recognize the accomplishment.

Coffeen school will be honored at an awards ceremony in Washington, DC, where representatives will receive a plaque and flag to signify the school’s exemplary status. Along with Henry A. Coffeen, Meadowlark Elementary and Sagebrush Elementary are also two-time Blue Ribbon award winners. Highland Park Elementary, Woodland Park Elementary, and Sheridan Junior High School are also Blue Ribbon award winners.
