Educator Evaluation Rubric Unpacked

Evaluation Process Overview

1) Write a self-assessment that identifies the educators strengths and areas of growth.

2) A minimum of two goals are required: one student learning goal and one professional practice goal. Goal proposals should be submitted on or before October 1, 2014 by 12:00 noon.

3) Goals will be either returned or approved, and eventually approved by November 1, 2014.

4) An action plan should be created for each goal and approved by November 1, 2014.

Evaluation Process Overview

5) Artifacts should be uploaded that relate to educators goals and according to the areas of the rubric.

6) Observations by an evaluator will occur anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 minutes.

7) Summative and Formative Assessments will occur by an evaluator.

GoalsShould align with Quality School Plan

Grade level teams can generate team or individual goals

Baseline data should be used and recorded to determine outcomes

SMART goals are required (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Timely)

See Principal or Teacher Leader for help with goals

Getting the Right Goals

To test alignment of goals, ask:“If we achieve that goal, is it highly likely that our

students/team/school will achieve this student learning goal?”

“How is my work** this year helping the school meet our goals?”

To test commitment to goals, ask:“Does this feel like a goal we (or I) can live out? Live

with? Live up to?”

Action PlansPlans need to be submitted that are specific

enough so the evaluator understands the steps, resources, timeline.

Final submission of action plans and goals is October 27, 2014. This will enable the principal to review the goals, and have discussions with educators for any final adjustments before the district deadline of November 1, 2014.

ArtifactsEducators will need to upload at least 8 artifacts

for their Formative and Summative assessments periods. Each assessment period will require at least 8 artifacts.

Educators should explain how the artifact relates to the standard he/she selects

Upload artifacts that document progress on goals.

Artifacts can also document your action plan.

ArtifactsArtifacts have to represent goals, the standards

of the rubric: Curriculum Planning, and Assessment; Teaching All Students; Family and Community Engagement; Professional Culture

Artifacts align with the schools’ priority areas.

Artifacts can include many items including student work, lesson plans, common planning notes, movies, photos. The explanation is essential.

ArtifactsEducators need to explain how/why the artifact

relates to the standard/priority area

If more than one standard is checked, then explanation needs to explain each standard.

An explanation of why an learning process is important is not necessary, i.e., why guided reading is important in the learning process. Educators should explain how/why the artifact of guided reading supports and relates to the standard that the educator selected.
