Welcome!
My name is Lisa Bieber and I am the Learning Support Teacher for 3rd grade. This is my 32nd year of teaching. I've taught in Japan, New Mexico, and Pennsylvania. I spent the first half of my career working in the elementary grades before moving into special education at BHMS. My husband graduated from Brandywine Heights and our children attend(ed) school in this district. Brynn is currently a junior at Penn State University Park and Carter is a 10th grader at BHHS. They keep us very busy! We have three pets--two cats named Ranger and Cupcake and a dog named Rudy. We enjoy traveling, spending time with family, and attending sporting events. I am excited to work with you this school year! If you have questions or you'd like to just say "hi", please use the following email to reach me: lisbie@bhasd.org
Grading Policy:
All district gradebooks will utilize a weighted scale. Summative assessments will comprise 60% of a student’s quarterly grade, and formative assessments will comprise 40%.
Summative assessments = a measure of student learning at the end of an instructional unit (i.e. - Tests, Quizzes, etc.)
Formative assessments = an ongoing measure of student learning used by the teacher to guide instruction (i.e. - Classwork, Homework, etc.)
Assignments (Outline the following if applicable)
Tests/quizzes
Projects
Classwork
Homework
Retesting
On summative assessments, students wishing to demonstrate higher levels of content mastery are allowed/encouraged to retest
Students must “earn” the right to retest (e.g. - Make test corrections, complete an alternate assignment, etc.)
Students may only retest one (1) time per assessment
Students will earn the higher of the assessment results (original or retest - not an average of the two)
Students have a maximum of two weeks to complete the retest
