Evaluation Standards 6 & 8 Cherokee County Schools Administrators July 30, 2012 Joyce Gardner Professional Development Consultant, Region 8 joyce.gardner@dpi.nc.gov
Teacher Evaluation Process STEP 1: Training and Orientation STEP 2: Self-Assessment, Goal Setting and Pre-Conference STEP 4: Summary Evaluation and Goal Setting STEP 3: Observation Cycle (Administrative and Peer) See Process Handout
Sixth Standard for Teachers:Teachers contribute to the academic success of students. The work of the teacher results in acceptable, measurable progress for students based on established performance expectations using appropriate data to demonstrate growth.
Inclusion of Student Growth:The State will add a student growth component to the teacher and principal evaluation process.A Teacher Effectiveness Work Group comprised of representative stakeholders will consider how to add the components and address technical concerns.
Importance of Student Growth: Current evaluation ratings are not correlated with student growth.
Proceeding with Caution:Using the current data for grades 3 – 8 math and English Language Arts teachers, less than five percent are not making expected growth.Under the current EVAAS system, nearly 80 percent of teachers stay in the same category (not detectably different) each year.
Abbreviated Evaluation • For career teachers not in their renewal year, the second option would require 2 informal observations • Informal observations do not require a post-observation conference) and • A summative evaluation at the end of the year. • An abbreviated evaluation is an OPTION. • Principals always have the right to complete the full Teacher Evaluation Process.
Concerns about Annual Evaluation: The new evaluation instrument is more thorough and specific, and, therefore, takes longer for evaluators to complete.The House and Senate budgets reduced the number of assistant principals.Principals may not have time to complete the entire evaluation process for all staff members.
Requirements for Abbreviated Evaluation: • The abbreviated evaluation option includes: • Teacher Self-Assessment • Professional Development Plan • Two Informal Observations (at least twenty minutes each) • Summary Evaluation Conference (on Standards One, Four, and Six) • Summary Rating Form (on Standards One, Four, and Six)
