Charter Goal: During each year of the charter term, the school will increase the percentage of classrooms rated as “Proficient” or higher on the Liberty Tech Project Based Learning (PBL) Instructional Rubric.

4. How many proficient classrooms/teachers do we have currently?
5. What structure is being put into place to help teachers/classrooms meet proficiency?

Presentation by Mr. Eller to present a proposal for adopting the Hawthorne Gifted Evaluation Scale (GES-4) digital platform at Liberty Tech Charter School.  As part of our ongoing efforts to refine our gifted identification pathways and support our diverse K–8 student body, we are looking to transition from our current use of the Renzulli Motivational Checklist to a more comprehensive, normed, and data-driven motivation assessment tool.
