If your student has any questions or needs help, please reach out to your student's teacher.
Thank you Paris School District Bus Drivers!
Congratulations! Paris Middle has been recognized by the Office for Education Policy (OEP) 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!
In our Beating the Odds report to be released tomorrow, Paris Middle received the following "Beating the Odds" awards:
Statewide ELA Growth: Middle School Level
High ELA Growth: Middle Level (Northwest Region)
Awards are based on the 2021 content growth score calculated by the Arkansas Department of Education. These growth scores reflect how much students at the school improved from 2019 compared to how much they were expected to grow considering prior achievement. We recognize schools based on Overall growth, as well as for growth in Math and English Language Arts separately. To learn more about how we determined the OEP award winners and to see the full list of award recipients, you can view the report here.
Former Paris Graduate Jimmy Dikeman began his CNC Machinist training at the Tyson Logan County Career Center in Paris. He graduated from Arkansas Tech University- Ozark and is now employed by ABB Motors & Mechanical Inc.
Mr. Dikeman is quoted as saying, "I have been able to be in a 'real-world' situation to better myself with experience; continually learning and having the ability to have a financial income and support myself." Congratulations, Jimmy!
