BOB AND BETTY COURTWAY MIDDLE SCHOOL

Today, we proudly celebrate the recipients of the OEP Award for English Language Arts. This award honors the tireless work of educators and the determination of students, especially in schools serving communities facing greater academic and economic challenges. By focusing on student growth rather than just achievement or graduation rates, the OEP Awards recognize the real impact schools make every day. We applaud these teachers for beating the odds and showing that every student can succeed with the right support. Congratulations, Courtway ELA teachers and students! #AscendToExcellence #CWAYisTheWay
