It has to be a group effort, with input from everyone (administrators, counselors, teachers, students, etc) so that we all have the ability to have our voices heard and our opinions valued. Without support and engagement from the community, teachers are left to make policies that are confusing for students, and can vary wildly from student to student, and may leave teachers feeling unsupported when their classroom expectations are overruled by people who don't understand or support them or the student in rigor or classroom culture. ]]> 2020-11-13 14:16:34 UTC https://padlet.com/leche/qo6g1u8dtph5wh69/wish/920168155 Culture of Assessment 2 https://padlet.com/leche/qo6g1u8dtph5wh69/wish/920168356 Discussing the pitfalls of cheating and the importance of honesty in all of our affairs.
