Policy Use and Review

Ogden High School’s assessment policy is a working document that guides teacher practice and furthers student development as balanced, whole learners. It will be reviewed and revised yearly, or as necessary, by the school’s pedagogical leadership team (administrators, IB Coordinator, department heads, and interested teachers).
