(TIER 1) Teachers of Reading and Math for whom SGPs are available (Grades 4-8) (Up to Algebra I) SGP = Student Growth Profile 20% of total evaluation may be based on median growth percentile when certain criteria are met 20% to 40% of the evaluation may be based on other growth measures determined collaboratively during the goal setting process (TIER 2)Teachers who support reading and math for whom SGPs are available When aligned to individual or school‐wide goals, no more than 20% of total evaluation may be based on median growth percentile when certain criteria are met 20% to 40% of total evaluation based on measures of student academic progress other than SGPs, determined collaboratively during the goal setting process (TIER 3)Teachers who have no direct or indirect role in teaching reading or mathematics in grades where SGPs are available N/A 40% of total evaluation based on measures of student academic progress other than SGPs, determined collaboratively during the goal setting process Teacher Performance Evaluation System Student Achievement
Example Using Test Data Goal Statement For the 2009/10 school year, all of my students will demonstrate Measurable growth in mathematics. At least 80% of my students will meet or exceed the benchmark of 50th percentile or above on the percentile rank distribution for STAR. Baseline, Mid‐Year, and End of Year Data Percentile Rank Distribution of Students on the STAR Mathematics Assessment Example of Goal Setting for Student Academic Progress: Subject/Grade: 10th grade Biology •Goal Statement (Describe what you want learners/program to accomplish):
Definitions of Terms Used in Rating Scale Category Description Exemplary (35‐40) The teacher maintains performance, accomplishments, and behaviors that considerably surpass the established standard. Proficient (26‐34) The teacher meets the standard in manner that is consistent with the school’s mission and goals. Developing/ Needs Improvement (20‐25) The teacher performs below the established standard or in a manner that is inconsistent with the school’s mission and goals.
In addition to meeting the standard, the teacher consistently demonstrates extensive knowledge of the subject matter and continually enriches the curriculum. The teacher demonstrates an understanding of the curriculum, subject content, and the developmental needs of students by providing relevant learning experiences. The teacher inconsistently demonstrates understanding of the curriculum, content, and student development or fluidity in using the knowledge in practice. The teacher instruction on material that is inaccurate or and/or inadequately addresses the developmental needs of students. Summative Rating Summative ratings should apply the rating for each of the seven performance expectations, with the most significant weight given to Standard 7 - Student Academic Progress. Virginia Department of Education recommends the following guidelines for summative ratings: date
