The national news magazine U.S. News and World Report recently ranked Ridgway High School as one of Colorado's top 29 high schools.

Superintendent Douglas Bissonette announced the recognition by e-mail on Monday, giving congratulations to Secondary School teachers and staff.

He said the ranking is based on student academic performance from 2006-07, the first year the high school was ranked excellent by the state.

Ridgway has an enrollment of 86 students in grades 9-12 and the school received, as did Telluride High School, a Bronze Medal ranking by U.S. News & World Report. The website address: www.usnews.com/listings/high-schools/colorado
