National Blue Ribbon Award

In 2016, OLV became the first school in DC to be named a "National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence" by the U.S Department of Education for the second time.

Since our first recognition in 2007, our students have continued to exceed National Blue Ribbon academic requirements in reading and math each year.  As a result, OLV is ranked among the top 15% of schools in the nation!

OLV is the first school in the Archdiocese of Washington to receive the National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence Award twice and one of only a handful of school to do so nationally.
