ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT |
5500 |
|
The
philosophy of the Board concerning academic achievement is based on the
premise that people have diverse capabilities and interests and individual
patterns of growth and learning. |
||
|
Therefore,
the Board feels it is important that teachers have as much and as accurate
knowledge as possible of students' intelligence, achievement, work habits,
skills, health, and environment. |
||
|
The
Board recognizes that many factors which cannot be clinically tested
(attitude toward others and work habits, for example) may influence a
student's success as much as knowledge of subject areas. |
||
|
Achievement
shall be judged in relation to a student's learning capacity and her/his
degree of mastery of the course work. |
