SIATech Little Rock Charter High School is proud to announce it has been recognized by the Office for Education Policy at the University of Arkansas as a school that is Beating the Odds, because students demonstrated high growth on the ACT Aspire even though the school serves a high percentage of students who participate in Free and Reduced Lunch!
The OEP creates an annual report entitled the Outstanding Educational Performance Awards, and this year recognized schools with high student growth. OEP has voiced that they think growth is the best indicator of the positive impact that our school is having on students.
In the Beating the Odds report published by University of Arkansas, SIATech Little Rock Charter High School received the following awards:
- Statewide "Beating the Odds" Math Growth: High School Level
- "Beating the Odds" Math Growth: High School Level (Central Region)
Awards are based on the 2018 content growth score calculated by the Arkansas Department of Education. These growth scores reflect how much students at the school improved from 2017 compared to how much they were expected to grow considering prior achievement.
Congratulations to SIATech Little Rock’s staff and students on this tremendous accomplishment!
