Congratulations! Dumas Middle School has been recognized by the Office for Education Policy (OEP) at the University of Arkansas as a school where students are Beating the Odds by demonstrating high growth on the ATLAS, despite facing economic challenges outside of school!
As you may know, the OEP creates an annual report entitled the Outstanding Educational Performance Awards where we recognize schools with high student academic growth. We think growth is the best indicator of the positive impact that your school is having on students.
In our Beating the Odds report published today, Dumas Middle School received the following awards:
High Overall Growth (Southeast region)
High Math Growth (Southeast region)
High ELA Growth (Southeast region)
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.
