By the end of this session we will have an understanding of the following: • A new model for teacher evaluation based on current research • The correlation of BEST in the observation and feedback • The structure of the new instructional appraisal system • The FEAPs as a framework for the observation process Desired Outcomes
Evaluation process requires a two-way dialogue between observer and observee • A teacher’s impact as a leader on the school should extend beyond the classroom • The primary purpose of an evaluation is to improve instruction, evidenced by student achievement Rationale
The development of the evaluation process for any one teacher is designed with the input of both teacher and administration Evaluation for the teacher is an ongoing reflective process It takes more than one observation to evaluate the effectiveness of a teacher Rationale
Teacher effectiveness is correlated to the level of student engagement and student performance Rationale
All teachers can increase their expertise and skill level from year to year which allows gains in student achievement from year to year. Goal
Professional Appraisal Model 3 points INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTABILITY BASED ON IDENTIFIED ASSESSMENTS 30 Points: Individual Results 5 Points: Regression 5 Points: Collaborative team student achievement results related to closing the achievement gap of the Lowest 25% in Reading and/or Math DISTRICT OPTION: TEAM & SCHOOL ACCOUNTABILITY 5 Points: Achievement of School Improvement Plan goals assigned for whole school results or team results 2 Points: Individual accountability for meeting individual Professional Growth Plan (PGP) target(s) 3 points: Alignment of Professional Practices with Student Growth Measures PROFESSIONAL PRACTICES 21 Points: Professional Practices 10 Points: Professional Growth Plan Development 8 Points: Plan Implementation 8 Points: Collaboration & Mutual Accountability 10% Student Achievement (7 pts) 40% Student Achievement (40 pts) 50% Multi-Metric (47 pts)

Summative evaluation form • Two parts • Formative observations • Peer and administrator involvement • Overall ratings • Multi-metric in fashion Summative 50% student growth 50% use of data, plan implementation, collaboration, and alignment with expectations and performance Procedures
Two rating scales for determining Highly Effective, Effective, Needs to Improve or Unsatisfactory Performance What does it look like?
Formative ratings: • Distinguished – performance consistently exceeds FEAPs • Proficient – performance meets FEAPs • Professional Support Needed – performance requires additional attention • Unsatisfactory – performance does not meet minimum requirements of the position What does it look like?
Summative --Multi-metric • 100 point scale • 0-50 – Student Growth • 35 points --Value added student scores • 5 points—collaborative team effort • 5 points –School Improvement Plan • 3 points—school regression data • 2 points—target met PGP student growth Overall Points and Rating Scale
Professional Practice • 0-21 – Observations • 0-10 – Plan Development • 0-8 – Plan Implementation • 0-8 – Collaboration • 0-3 – Alignment Overall Points and Rating Scale (cont)
86-100 – Highly Effective 73-85 – Effective 64-72 – Needs Improvement 63 and less – Unsatisfactory Annual Performance Scale
