In Mehlville FLEX, students have the opportunity to demonstrate proficiency in the program competencies through relevant evidence. This is achieved through a process of regular feedback and reflection with multiple opportunities to show growth. 

Our goal for students is to become competent in each course, as demonstrated by consistent, proficient evidence for each skill assessed.

Each student may reach this competency at different times and in different ways. Our program is intended to offer multiple opportunities to reach mastery, emphasizing growth throughout this semester. For this reason, we do not average points throughout a semester or rely upon a percentage system. 

Throughout the semester, a student (and guardians) should reflect upon progress based on where they are with their competencies and their individual goals. If a student is not yet meeting proficiency, this is an opportunity to identify areas for growth and figure out ways in which to do so. This could be revision on an individual assignment under the guidance of their teacher, or improved performance on the next assessment over the same skill. 

All coursework and projects submitted need to be original work reflecting the skills, ability, and content knowledge of the student.

Parents and students to look to Mastery Book to see how students are performing in their classes.
