Achievement assessments
Ability assessments
Classroom observation
Evidence from state and national performance ratings
Parent recommendations
TAG Advanced Learning Plans (ALP)
Teacher recommendations
All TAG students have an Advanced Learning Plan (ALP) which includes academic and affective goals. To ensure rigor and engagement, plans and goals are developed using a team approach between the TAG teachers/coordinators, students, families and classroom teachers. ALPs are consistently monitored and modified.
