Alpha Plus Educational Systems is Oklahoma’s premier school-improvement firm with proven results achieved over more than 30 years. Initially a tutoring company founded by Jan Barrick in 1986 to help students raise their report-card grades, the Alpha Plus mission evolved into creating tools that improve school performance in terms of state and federal accountability. Since 1990, when the Oklahoma Legislature mandated the state’s first academic standards, the team of educators at Alpha Plus has been helping schools meet and exceed ever-changing mandates.

Over the years, Alpha Plus team of Oklahoma educators developed a system of interim assessments aligned solely to the Oklahoma Academic Standards (OAS) so teachers and administrators could monitor student mastery. In 2016, they started writing the Success with OAS curriculum to help teachers cover all the standards.

  • Written by Oklahoma teachers for Oklahoma students to Oklahoma standards, Success with OAS English language arts and mathematics textbooks and assessments have undergone major upgrades over the last year with print and online versions available in an easy-to-use, web-based platform that now has integrated training tools.
  • Alpha Plus Online summative and formative assessments produce real-time reports by student, class, and school at the performance levels and to the expectations of the state of Oklahoma and U.S. Department of Education.
  • Evidence-based practices are used in a continuous cycle of improvement known as the Alpha Plus Model of data-driven professional development. Instructional teams learn to use data in making decisions about remediation and extension that improve instruction and school results.

Alpha Plus schools have outperformed the state average for every year of the Oklahoma School Report Cards.
