I-9 Sets and implements discipline management procedures
The following best describes a teacher performing at Level 3 in this criterion:
- Teacher effectively implements district and campus discipline management procedures.
- Teacher consistently communicates high behavioral expectations with students, addresses non-compliance, and reinforces appropriate behavior, as needed.
- Teacher maintains lesson momentum because there is no inappropriate or off-task behavior, or because the teacher redirects it in a subtle and preventative manner.
- Teacher consistently follows-through with consequences that are logical, appropriate to the level of student behavior, and effective at changing student behavior, when necessary.
- Students demonstrate a clear understanding of behavioral expectations and rules through their actions.
