Science lab renovations to create spaces that support STEM learning are proposed at Alexander Hamilton, FMS and MHS. At FMS, this lab would support modern curriculum standards and prepare students for the STEM Academy at MHS.

Thank you @SENetworkTV
for the great coverage of our game last night. Honored to be featured in your broadcast and post game interview. @sectv @GoRedRovers

A game that was knotted at one after the 1st quarter turned in favor of @EastonLacrosse as they scored 3 unanswered goals in the 2nd quarter to lead @ParklandBoysLax 4-1 at the half. Logan Young, Jason Annunziata, Sean McPeek and Evan Placotaris have goals for Easton. 🥍

[Brian S. Young @young_evolve]

"It is unfair to grade learners while they are in the process of learning"

Q: Why do we continue to do this in our #educational systems?

Imagine assigning an @NFL team wins and losses based on practice? Sounds ridiculous, right? Yet, we continue to do this with our children.

[Matt Townsley @mctownsley]

According to Margaret Heritage, formative assessment and grading are incompatible.

Summer is a great time to rethink your instructional approach and #assessment practices in the classroom. Make the transition to more #student #feedback and a qualitative assessment system in support of student learning. #SBG

[FIRST Ed Resources @1stEdResources]

Ready to strengthen your Standards Based Grading practices?
This spring & summer, we’re hosting virtual SBG workshops designed to help teams strengthen alignment, rethink reassessment, and ensure grades reflect learning.

Join us from wherever you are!

#STAGR #StandardsBasedGrading #SBG #AssessmentMatters

[FIRST Ed Resources @1stEdResources]

Real accountability in reassessment isn’t about limits or penalties.
It’s about requiring students to own their learning before they try again.

Reassessment without reflection is repetition.
Reassessment with reflection is growth.
