New Teacher Standards
Observations
a. Teachers lead in their classrooms. Teachers demonstrate leadership by taking responsibility for the progress of all
students to ensure that they graduate from high school, are globally competitive for work and postsecondary education,
and are prepared for life in the 21st century. Teachers communicate this vision to their students. Using a variety of the
data sources, they organize, plan, and set goals that meet the needs of the individual students and the class. Teachers
use various types of assessment data during the school year to evaluate student progress and to make adjustments to
the teaching and learning process. They establish a safe, orderly environment, and created a culture that empowers
students to collaborate and become lifelong learners.
