Owens Elementary School and Early College High School (ECHS) have been named to the 2018-2019 Educational Results Partnership (ERP) Honor Roll for high achievement in student success. The program, sponsored by the Campaign for Business and Education Excellence (CBEE), is part of a national effort to identify higher-performing schools and districts that are improving student outcomes.

The 2018-2019 Honor Roll is developed by ERP, a nonprofit organization that applies data science to help improve student outcomes and career readiness. ERP maintains the nation’s largest database on student achievement and utilizes this data to identify higher-performing schools and districts. Schools that receive the ERP Honor Roll distinction have demonstrated consistent high levels of student academic achievement, improvement in achievement levels over time, and a reduction in achievement gaps among student populations. For high schools, the ERP Honor Roll recognition also includes measures of college readiness.

“Congratulations to Owens Elementary and Early College High School for receiving this honor,” Tyler ISD Superintendent Dr. Marty Crawford said. “We are continually striving to increase academic achievement and improve educational outcomes for all of our students. The teachers and administrators at Owens and ECHS are fully committed and we are proud to see their hard work and dedication produce such positive results.”
