Referrals Reminder:
If you see student behavior that warrants a referral (major or minor) you should be the person to write the referral. You should also be the person who addresses the behavior unless you need additional support to do so. Writing a referral is not the consequence, it is merely the documentation of the incident.
Classroom Environment and Self Regulation
One of the components of our evaluation rubric is classroom environment. See this link for language from the rubric.
