(WTAQ-WLUK) — A Fox Valley school is earning high honors from the state for its success in closing achievement gaps.
Little Chute Middle School was recognized as one of the eight schools across the state named Wisconsin Blue Ribbon School winners by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction Monday.
