OKLAHOMA CITY (Nov. 25, 2019) – While Oklahoma’s 2018-19 School Report Card shows an increase in academic growth for elementary and middle school students, challenges remain in fully lifting the state’s preK-12 education. The State Board of Education today approved the annual accountability report.
Overall, academic growth was up for students in third through eighth grades. The rate of math growth was an improvement over 2018, while growth in English language arts (ELA) was down slightly year over year.
