The Indiana Senate congratulates Northrop High School and its Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) for receiving the first ever "School of Excellence" award from the National Parent Teacher Association.

The National PTA established the "School of Excellence" program to strengthen family-school partnerships and make measurable progress in education, health and safety, and arts and cultural exploration.

Northrop High School and its PTSA were recognized for hosting a College and Career Night for students and families and maintaining PTSA membership of over 660 members, including 100 percent of the school's teachers for three consecutive years.

The Secretary of the Senate is directed to transmit copies of the resolution to Principal Barbara Ahlersmeyer, Secretary Judy Delamarter, PTSA Co-President Theresa Distelrath, and PTSA Co-President Kathie Green.
