Presentation Objectives • Understand who are NCTs • Understand what is an SLO • Understand the components of the SLO template • Understand expectations for the SLO process from the beginning through the end
Who are NCTs? • NCTs are Bargaining Unit 5 employees who are not teachers of record for any classes. They do not plan, deliver, and assess instruction for students. • NCTs are professionals who support students, educators, parents, and other members of the school community. • NCTs also perform systems and process roles, critical to the overall operations of schools and offices.
Some Examples of NCTs • Curriculum Coordinators • Department Heads/Grade Level Chairs • Literacy/Math Coaches • Registrars • School Librarians • School Counselors • Student Services Coordinators • Student Activities Coordinators • Technology Coordinators • Resource Teachers
SLO Core Value Teachers are at the heart of a child’s education and profoundly impact student achievement. Thus, a high priority is placed on the enhancement of our teachers’ professional practices and the structures that support them.
Working in Alignment Common Initiatives: Academic Review Team (ART) Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Response to Intervention (RTI) Formative Instruction Induction & Mentoring Educator Effectiveness System (EES)
Primary Measures of the EE System for NCTs Professional Practice Student Growth and Learning
What is an SLO? • A goal for all teachers, including NCTs, is set at the start of the year or semester • Specific and measurable, based on available baseline data • Aligned to professional standards, or school, complex, or state office priorities
SLO Process • Administrator set priorities based on school, complex or state office goals • Through a data-driven process, schools and offices identify and monitor priorities and implementation efforts Data Team Process • NCT and administrator collaboratively monitor and review implementation and results • NCT set customized SLOs aligned to school, complex, or state office goals Revise strategy (as appropriate) • NCT reviews progress and schedules Midterm Check-In as needed • NCT and administrator agree on SLOs
Goal Goal: what will be achieved at the end of the year or semester that reflects the standards or best practices and supports the big idea
Goal Sample Goal: Targeted students will attend school regularly and have no more than 8.5% days of absences of the total number of school days. Big idea: Students must attend school regularly to access learning opportunities
Professional Standards of Practice Framework for Teaching (Charlotte Danielson) 3c. Using counseling techniques in individual and classroom programs American School Counselor Association (ASCA) National Standards A:A2.2 Students will demonstrate how effort and persistence positively affect learning A:B1.1 Students will demonstrate the motivation to achieve individual potential PS-B1.2 Students will understand consequences of decisions and choices Hawaii DOE Strategic Plan 1A Objective: All students are engaged and ready to learn
Goal Sample Rationale: Students who are not in school regularly have fewer opportunities to learn what will enable them to succeed in school. Research suggests that students with better attendance score higher on achievement tests than students who are more frequently absent. Our school has decided to focus on improving school attendance and it is reflected in our Academic and Financial Plan. Interval necessary to address goal: X year semester
Evidence and Success Criteria Sample Planned evidence and criteria used to determine levels of performance: (check all that apply) • Early Warning System (EWS) Data – 90% of 7th grade students listed as “approaching off track” for attendance in the first quarter of the school year will be in the “on track” range by the end of the school year. • Parent Involvement Data – 90% of parents of 7th grade students in the “approaching off track” range for attendance will sign and return attendance intervention plans.
Expected Targets Sample Use the SMART Goal format: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-bound 90% of the 35 seventh grade students who are “approaching off track” for attendance will be in the “on track” range in the Early Warning System at the end of the school year.
Implementation Strategies Key Strategies (for all focus areas of the goal): Personal phone calls will be made to parents/guardians on the day of the student’s absence. Using the data driven problem solving process, the student’s team will assess why the student is not attending school and develop customized intervention strategies with the student and parent based on individual identified needs. An attendance intervention plan will document the plan and progress. Identified students will check in at least weekly with the counselor. A teacher mentor will be selected for the identified students.
