Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR)
What are the components of APPR? Teacher Evaluation • 60 points (observation*/goal setting) • 20 points (State Growth Measure/Student Learning Objective [SLO] or goal setting process) • 20 points (local assessment) *Observations based on New York State Teaching Standards and rubric selected by district.
Student Learning Objectives (SLO) • Will provide the Comparable Growth Measure (CGM) for any teacher who will not receive a CGM from the state. • Reflect the most important learning of a course. • Should be comparable for all teachers teaching the same course. • Is specific and measurable. • Based on prior student learning data. • Aligned to standards.
Who Will Need an SLO? For those classes that do not have a state assessment and are not “associated with a state assessment or a Regents,” develop/identify a district-wide assessment and set an SLO for that assessment. Ex. HS Calculus, MS Band, World Languages. In many cases one SLO will be sufficient. However, it may be necessary to have more than one SLO. The SLO must address 50 % of a teachers total enrollment. For example, if a teacher has 150 students (50 students in French 1, 50 students in French 2, 50 students in French 3), she will 2 SLOs.
What Comprises an SLO? • Identify student population served. • Identify learning content, based on standards. • Interval of time: half-year/year. • Evidence: assessments or products. • Baseline: starting point for students. • Target: Expected outcomes by end of instructional period. • HEDI Criteria: ranges of student performance and range of points related to ratings. • Rationale: Why is this learning important?

What is the process? • Meet with teachers to decide how many SLOs are needed. • Determine population, learning content, interval, evidence and baseline. • Establish comparable expectations for each level/course.
