All students will engage in self and peer assessment to demonstrate understanding of academic and social concepts daily. Students will reflect upon their understanding through discussions, written reflections, and goal setting for continuous improvement. These protocols and practices will serve to promote an equitable, welcoming and affirming learning environment, and help all students develop a growth mindset for their social and academic progress.
Students will utilize our school wide TAG Protocol for self and peer assessment.
