These opportunities are workshop assessments that are more traditional all the way through students creating solutions to problems in the community they have a personal interest in.

We focus on our coach relationship to build relationships, we use the data to pinpoint where students are struggling, parent communication is essential, try to determine what issues are behavior based and which are math deficit based. We do have students that don't graduate and we do make limited extensions that give a student a grade lower than a B if they are a senior. ]]> 2018-10-23 22:09:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ladstenr/tfaw94zndrab/wish/296212531
