Alpha Plus Educational Systems announced partnerships with Agra Elementary School and Agra Junior High School for school year 2019 - 2020.
Seventy-four schools across Oklahoma have partnered with the Oklahoma-based company to improve student academic performance.
Alpha Plus uses research-based methods to help schools improve through the use of customized services for rural, suburban and urban schools.
“Schools who use our data are able to identify the academic standards teachers need to reinforce so their students will learn more efficiently and perform better on state tests,” Jan Barrick, Alpha Plus CEO said. “That’s why Alpha Plus schools have outperformed other schools on the state school report card every year. Our schools work efficiently and effectively in the classroom, and that shows in the results.”
“I have seen great results from the Alpha Plus system,” Jeff Kelly, Agra Public Schools Superintendent said. “It is written for Oklahoma schools, by Oklahoma educators, using only Oklahoma standards. This fact gives our teachers confidence that what they are teaching is actually going to affect the test scores of their students.”
Alpha Plus provides training, assessments and resources for schools statewide. Founded in 1990 by an Oklahoma teacher, Alpha Plus curriculum and teaching tools are aligned solely to Oklahoma Academic Standards.
