DCES Receives Award from UofA OEP
May 25th, 2018 by iPhoneDrew Central Elementary has been recognized by the Office for Education Policy at the University of Arkansas as a school where students demonstrated high growth on the ACT Aspire!
The OEP creates an annual report entitled the Outstanding Educational Performance Awards, and recognizes schools with high student growth. We think growth is the best indicator of the positive impact that a school is having on students.
In the report, Drew Central Elementary received the High ELA Growth: Elementary Level award.
Awards are based on the 2017 content growth score calculated by the Arkansas Department of Education. These growth scores reflect how much students at the school improved from 2016 compared to how much they were expected to grow considering prior achievement.
“We congratulate you on this accomplishment and hope that you will share this good news with teachers, students, and others who contributed to your school’s success.”
