Sense of acceptance, respect, support and inclusion for self and others in the school environment (ASCA, 2021). This mindset standard from the ASCA represents one of my core beliefs. I think it is essential that all students are given plenty of opportunities to be accepted within their environments. With opportunities for acceptance, students, then gain comfort and other structural needs to be capable in their day-to-day activities.

B-PE 3. Develop annual student outcome goals based on student data

B. write goals in a measurable format, such as the smart goal format and include baseline and target data within the goal statement.

D. Communicate annual student outcome goals to administrators, teachers, other school, staff and stakeholders

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that I did not score well on these two sections of the development for annual student outcome goals because I am not the best at taking down student data when it is not a student that I find to be in typical troubling situations. I think that these are super important goals, and it is extremely important to have outcome goals for all students which is why I scored low. I do a great job typically with outcome goals for my students who are troubled or experiencing negative feedback. I need to certainly do better within this measurement for all of my students going forward.

Mindset M1-7

I believe that I scored really well on mindset because of my disposition and experience in life. Being a former college and professional athlete, I have always preached mindset in my own work, as well as my work that I do with coaching and other athletes. To me success of other people is something that I can always have an effect on when I put the right mindset into the correct channels. Believing that all students can learn providing opportunities for all students being comprehensive with my work and displaying proper leadership skills are things that naturally come to me. The section on mindsets  is something that has always been intriguing and because of that I scored well.

B-PF 1.

I also scored while on most of the subsections within this discipline. I believe that I scored well here because of some of the similar characteristics that I share as far as scoring well within the mindset section. Having a strong mindset includes being able to develop, learn, and recognize the comprehensiveness of whatever situation you are in. So ,for me within this section, I did well on human development theories, supporting achievement, gaining opportunities for learning and especially with person-centered counseling and family systems.
