Student Growth Objectives (SGO) are academic goals for students that a teacher sets with their principal or designated supervisor at the beginning of the year.

• These academic goals must be aligned to standards and measured using high-quality assessments of various types including locally-developed tests, performance assessments, and portfolios.
• High-quality SGOs use multiple measures to determine the starting point of the students and are differentiated to be ambitious and achievable for all of the students included.
• Additionally, SGOs should include a significant proportion of the standards, course work, and students for which a teacher is responsible.
