Hialeah Gardens High School was among several local high schools that brought home the gold in awards and scholarships at the NAF Academies Conference in Washington, D.C.
The event focuses on professional development experience that ignites innovation and spreads effective practices across the NAF network through unique learning and networking opportunities.
The conference was attended by more than 60 Miami-Dade County Public Schools administrators and teachers and post-secondary and industry business partners who back NFA Academies.
During the conference, Hialeah Gardens High was awarded the prestigious JD Home Presidential Award, which recognizes the first high school in the NAF Network to have all five of its NAF-themed academies receive the highest designation of “Distinguished.”
A former Janet Linton Award Honoree, Hialeah Gardens High principal Louis J.Algaze’s leadership led to all NAF Academies performing at the highest level of delivering high-quality educational experiences for its students.
