Reading: The Ultimate Two for One Special
Parents can be great multi-taskers. Educators are really good at multi-tasking, too.
I’ll tell you what that means at Alpha Plus, but first, let’s talk about reading.
Oklahoma Academic Standards for English Language Arts/Math:
2019 state test scores allow comparisons of grade-level performance by district.
The most gratifying part of our work with Oklahoma schools is helping them achieve academic success in their classrooms. Like most things these days, academic success can be determined by available data, should you choose to utilize the data that exists.
Alpha Plus and Oklahoma schools join forces for school improvement
Alpha Plus schools outperform others every year of state school report cards
There’s an old expression that goes like this: “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always gotten.”
While Henry Ford is credited with this wisdom, evidence of it can be seen clearly in public education in Oklahoma.
Like a distinct scratch on a broken record, we recently heard results from the National Assessment of Educational Progress show test scores on the decline nationally.
Since 2019 Oklahoma School Report Cards were issued a few short weeks ago, we’ve heard from a wide range of leaders cautioning their use as an accurate tool for measuring student success.
Those criticizing the report cards rightly point out that the needs of a school’s student population are impacted by factors that can’t be controlled by teachers and school administration.
Things like poverty, a high percentage of English Language Learners (ELL) and chronic absenteeism do indeed impact student success. What some miss though, is that the State School Report Cards already account for these when the grades are figured.
We Use Data to Help Schools on the Way to an A!
Teachers and administrators can quickly and easily identify students who need more help learning the Oklahoma Academic Standards.
Alpha Plus pinpoints the SPECIFIC OAS objectives or "gaps" students have from previous years, then helps school teams address each objective throughout the year.
That is why Alpha Plus schools have OUTPERFORMED the state average every year of the A-F Report Cards.
