  1. HB 153 and theOhio Teacher Evaluation System Association Advocacy for Members and the Learners We Serve

  2. HB 153 and Teacher Evaluation • Every school district must have a policy for teacher evaluation by July 1, 2013 • Student academic growth must account for 50% of a teacher’s evaluation • The State Board of Education must adopt an evaluation framework by December 11, 2011 • The framework must provide for teacher ratings of accomplished, proficient, developing and ineffective

  3. HB 153 and Teacher Evaluation • Every school district must have a policy for teacher evaluation by July 1, 2013 • Local policy must be operative upon expiration of the CBA in effect on September 29, 2011 (HB 153 eff. date) • Evaluation results must be used for promotion and retention decisions • Seniority can be a deciding factor for RIF only when 2 or more teachers evidence comparable evaluation results

  4. HB 153 and Teacher Evaluation • Every school district must have a policy for teacher evaluation by July 1, 2013 • ONLY for Race to the Top districts: If performance-based compensation is a component of the local RttT scope of work, then the district must comply with the timelines therein. If performance-based compensation is NOT a part of the local RttT scope of work, the district is NOT required to implement it.

  5. HB 153 & RttT Timeline forTeacher Evaluation • Sep 29, 2011 • Nov 15, 2011 • End 2011-2012 school year • Jul 1 2013 • End 2013-2014 school year • HB 153 effective • SBE adopted OTES (prior to Dec 31 deadline) • Ohio target: 50% RttT LEAs have evaluation systems • Due date: local board evaluation policy adopted • Ohio target: 100% RttT LEAs have evaluation systems

  6. OTES Creates Opportunities for Local Associations to Shape Evaluation • OTES is focused on teacher development to improve student learning: • Built from research-based standards, and • Recommends use of multiple measures and weight of the evidence decisions. • Studies suggest that evaluations built through teacher engagement are more effective for teachers and yield better results for students • Because teachers and principals have similar interests/concerns about the use of student data, they can be allies for effective teacher evaluation systems

  7. Opportunities for Local Association Leadership • Advocate for a school board policy reflecting OTES policy and local circumstances • Negotiate labor-management collaboration on building and improving the system • Lead in ways that foster member engagement toward making the evaluation system work for them and the students they serve • Engage the principals in making the system fair, effective and non-burdensome.

  8. Challenges for Local Association Leadership • Very short timeline to shape local policy and to build and operationalize the system • For non-RttT districts, this is an unfunded mandate • Being able to embrace evaluation as a helpful tool • Using student growth measures to foster teacher development, not to publicly criticize them and the school • Designing a system that is fair, effective and efficient – not one burdened by unhelpful procedures

  9. HB 153 & RttT Timeline forTeacher Evaluation • Sep 29, 2011 • Nov 15, 2011 • End 2011-2012 school year • Jul 1 2013 • End 2013-2014 school year • HB 153 effective • SBE adopted OTES (prior to Dec 31 deadline) • Ohio target: 50% RttT LEAs have evaluation systems • Due date: local board evaluation policy adopted • Ohio target: 100% RttT LEAs have evaluation systems
