What is the Statute of Limitations on Being Named a National Blue Ribbon School?

If you visit the New Rochelle Board of Education web site or look at their letterhead or read their promotional material you will often see a phrase like "National Blue Ribbon award-winning public school system". I often wondered what a National Blue Ribbon was and when the last time it was that the school system won a National Blue Ribbon award The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program of the U.S. Department of Education was founded in 1982 to recognize public and private elementary, middle, and high schools where students perform at very high levels or where significant improvements are being made in students' academic achievement.
