ASSURANCESCERTIFIED EVALUATION PLAN
The Clay County School District hereby assures the Commissioner of Education that:
An evaluation committee composed of an equal number of teachers and administrators developed this evaluation plan.
The evaluation process and criteria for evaluation will be explained to and discussed with all certified personnel annually within one month of reporting for employment. This shall occur prior to the implementation of the plan. The evaluation of each certified staff member will be conducted by the immediate supervisor of the employee.
All certified employees shall develop an Professional Growth Plan (PGP) that shall be aligned with the school/district improvement plan and comply with the requirements of 704 KAR 3:345. The PGP will be reviewed annually.
All administrators, to include the superintendent, and non-tenured teachers will be evaluated annually.
All tenured teachers will have a summative evaluation a minimum of once every three years.
Each evaluator will be trained and certified in the use of state approved evaluation techniques and the use of local instruments and procedures.
Each person evaluated will have both formative and summative conferences with the evaluator regarding his/her performance.
CIITS will house all records of evaluation. Summative evaluations shall be filed in personnel records at central office.
The Local District Evaluation Appeals Panel will provide each person evaluated the opportunity for a review of the summative evaluation. Provision is made for the right to review all documentation presented to the Appeals Panel and to the represented at the appeals.
The evaluation plan process will not discriminate on the basis of race, national origin, religion, marital status, sex, or disability.
This evaluation plan will be reviewed as needed and any substantive revisions will be submitted to the Department of Education for approval.
The local board of education approved the evaluation plan as recorded in the minutes of the meeting held on April 5, 2014.

CLAY COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLSDistrict Professional Growth and Effectiveness
Certified Evaluation PlanOverview
Educational evaluation is a professional activity that individual educators need to undertake if they intend to continuously review and enhance the learning they are endeavoring to facilitate. The standards are for promoting professional competence; identify areas for professional growth, and to assist in making the best decisions for students. With the purpose of improving instruction, curriculum, assessment and other professional responsibilities, the ultimate goal of the Clay County Public School’s Certified Evaluation Plan is to educate all students and give those experiences through effective teaching for life-long learning.Effective teaching and school leadership depend on clear standards and expectations, reliable feedback, and the tools, resources and support for professional growth and continuous improvement. The Kentucky Department of Education, with the guidance and oversight of various steering committees, has designed, developed, field tested and piloted a new statewide Professional Growth and Effectiveness System (PGES).
With the passage of Senate Bill 1 in 2009, Kentucky embarked on a comprehensive system of education reform integrating:
• Relevant and rigorous standards • Aligned and meaningful assessments • Highly effective teaching and school leadership • Data to inform instruction and policy decisions • Innovation • School improvement
All are critical elements of student success, but it is effective teaching supported by effective leadership that will ensure all Kentucky students are successful and graduate from high school college/career-ready.
The PGES is designed to measure teacher and leader effectiveness and serve as a catalyst for professional growth and continuous improvement, and is a key requirement of Kentucky’s Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) flexibility waiver and the state’s Race to the Top grant.
District Mission Statement (Our Purpose): ALL Students Will Learn and Be College and Career Ready Because of What WE Do.
District Vision Statement (Where We’re Going): CCPS: Where children are our #1 priority, where schools and community are active partners, where they receive the world-class education and experiences they deserve every day, where they receive the support they need when they need it, so that ALL students will graduate being college and career ready.

B. The Kentucky Framework for Teaching
The Framework for Teaching is designed to support student achievement and professional practice through the domains of Planning and Preparation, Classroom Environment, Instruction, and Professional Responsibilities. The Framework also includes themes such as equity, cultural competence, high expectations, developmental appropriateness, accommodating individual needs, effective technology integration, and student assumption of responsibility. It provides structure for feedback for continuous improvement through individual goals that target student and professional growth, thus supporting overall school improvement. Evidence supporting a teacher’s professional practice will be situated within one or more of the four domains of the framework. Performance will be rated for each component according to four performance levels: Ineffective, Developing, Accomplished, and Exemplary. The summative rating will be a holistic representation of performance, combining data from multiple sources of evidence across each domain.
The Framework for Teaching can be found at:http://education.ky.gov/teachers/PGES/Pages/Framework-for-Teaching.aspx
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
11
C. Professional Practice
1. Professional Growth Planning and Self-Reflection
The Professional Growth Plan will address realistic, focused, and measurable professional goals aligned to district/school improvement plans. The plan will connect data from multiple sources including classroom observation feedback, data on student growth and achievement, and professional growth needs identified through self-assessment and reflection. In collaboration with the administrators, teachers will identify explicit goals, which will drive the focus of professional growth activities, support, and on-going reflection.
Reflective practices and professional growth planning are iterative processes. The teacher (1) reflects on his or her current growth needs based on multiple sources of data and identifies an area or areas for focus; (2) collaborates with his or her administrator to develop a professional growth plan and action steps; (3) implements the plan; (4) regularly reflects on the progress and impact of the plan on his or her professional practice; (5) modifies the plan as appropriate; (6) continues implementation and ongoing reflection; (7) and, finally, conducts a summative reflection on the degree of goal attainment and the implications for next steps.
All teachers will participate in self-reflection and professional growth planning each year using district approved template. See Appendix A.
All teachers will complete self-reflection and professional growth planning in Educator Development Suite (EDS) housed within the Continuous Instructional Improvement Technology System (CIITS).
Self-Reflection /PGP will be submitted in EDS using CIITS for approval by September 15. Mid-Year Conference with Principal to review On-going Reflection Due December 31 End of Year Conference with Principal to review Summative Reflection Due April 30 In case of inclement weather, Superintendent may allow modification to the Mid and End Year
Conference dates. Multiple sources will include but are not limited to the following:
o Content standards and skillso School Improvement Plano Formative and Summative Assessmentso Student Growth Goal-setting processo Principal Evaluationo Peer Observationo Program Review Datao Student Voice Results o Kentucky Framework for Teaching
2. Observation
The observation process is one source of evidence to determine teacher effectiveness that includes supervisor and peer observation for each certified teacher. Both peer and supervisor observations will use the same instruments. The primary evaluator will be the immediate supervisor. The supervisor observation will provide documentation and feedback to measure the effectiveness of a teacher’s professional practice. Only the supervisor observation will be used to calculate a summative rating. Peer observation will only be used for formative feedback on teaching practice in a collegial atmosphere of trust and common purpose. NO
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
12
summative ratings will be given by the peer observer. The rationale for each type of observation is to encourage continued professional learning in teaching and learning through critical reflection.
3. Observation Model
The observation model must fulfill the following minimum criteria:
Four (4) observations in the summative cycle. A minimum of 3 observations conducted by the supervisor and 1 observation conducted by the peer.
The required peer observation must occur in the final year of the cycle. Final observation is conducted by the supervisor and is a full observation. All observations must be documented in EDS using CIITS.
CCPS will use the following observation model:
The Progressive Model (3&1 model) See Appendix B Observers will conduct three mini observations of approximately 20-30 minutes each. Because
these are shorter sessions, the observer will make note of the components observed in order to identify "look fors" in the next mini observation session. The final observation is a formal observation consisting of a full class or lesson observation.
Additional unannounced/announced observations may be conducted at any time.
4. Observation Conferencing
Observers will adhere to the following observation conferencing requirements:
Intern teachers will be evaluated using the Kentucky Teacher Internship Program (KTIP). Clay County Public Schools will conduct pre and post conferences for each observation whether
MINI or FORMAL. Formal observations will be announced and timely feedback will be provided to the teachers by
their evaluator. Pre-conferences may be completed through written electronic correspondence or in person, while post-conferences MUST be done in person.
In the summative evaluation year, a peer observer will complete one of the three mini-observations. Tenured Teachers – every third year. Non-Tenured – annually.
Pre-conferencing must be completed within FIVE school days of the scheduled observation. Post-conferencing must be completed within FIVE school days of the scheduled observation.
The summative evaluation conference shall be held at the end of the summative evaluation cycle and shall include all applicable Professional Growth and Effectiveness data.
5. Observation Schedule
Observations may begin after the evaluation training takes place within the first month of employment. Timeline for when observations must be completed Schedule for Non-Tenured Staff:
1st Observation Window: Begins 30 days after school starts – October 31 Mini2nd Observation Window: Begins November 1 – December 31 Mini (PEER)3rd Observation Window: Begins January 2 – February 28 Mini
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
13
4th Observation Window: Begins March 1 – April 30 FORMAL
In case of inclement weather, Superintendent may allow modifications to the Observation Schedule. The last observation must be completed by April 30th in order to plan Professional Learning for upcoming school year.
Schedule for Tenured Staff: Year 1: Principals complete MINI observation before April 30Year 2: Principals complete MINI observation before April 30Summative Year: Peer Completes MINI; Principal completes FORMAL before April 30.
See Appendix B: Observation Schedules for Non-Tenured and Tenured Staff. (Page 60)
6. Observer Certification
To ensure consistency of observations, evaluators must complete the Teachscape Proficiency Observation Training or the current approved state platform. The system allows observers to develop a deep understanding of how the four domains of the Kentucky Framework for Teaching (FfT) are applied in observation. There are 3 sections of the proficiency system:
Framework for Teaching Observer Training Framework for Teaching Scoring Practice Framework for Teaching Proficiency Assessment
The cycle for observation certification established is as follows [NOTE: This evaluation certification cycle mirrors the existing 704 KAR 3:370 related to initial and update training for certified evaluators]:
Year 1 CertificationYear 2 CalibrationYear 3 CalibrationYear 4 Recertification
Only supervisors who have passed the proficiency assessment can conduct mini and full observations for the purpose of evaluation. In the event that a supervisor has yet to complete the proficiency assessment, or if the supervisor does not pass the assessment, the district will provide the following supports:
The district will use a scaffold approach beginning with initial supports to ensure success during the first administration of the assessment, supports who do not pass after one attempt, and supports for those unable to pass after the second attempt and are locked out of the system for 90 days.o Initial Support for Principal or Assistant Principal without certification:
Assign peer Principal mentor with Proficiency Certification by superintendent or designee.
Assign district level mentor with Proficiency Certification by superintendent or designee.
o Additional Support: Study Sessions with central office mentor
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
14
Shadow principal mentoro Critical Support if locked out for 90 days:
District level mentor will create a study plan to be reviewed weekly by Superintendent
For Principals/Assistant Principals that have not passed after three attempts:
Employment Status will be reviewed by Superintendent.
The district will ensure teachers will have access to certified observers in cases where the supervisor is not certified through the proficiency system and therefore unable to conduct the observation.
o District-level personnel certified through the proficiency system will conduct the observation with the principal (modeling the process).
Observation data provided by a substitute observer (district level observer) is considered a valid source of evidence when the supervisor conducts the observation.
7. Observer Calibration
As certified observers may tend to experience “drift” in rating accuracy, the district will establish a calibration process to be completed each year where certification is not required (see chart under Observer Certification). This calibration process will be completed in years two (2) and three (3) after certification. Calibration ensures ongoing accuracy in scoring teaching practice; an awareness of the potential risk for rater bias; and that observers refresh their knowledge of the training and scoring practice.
Observer calibration during years 2 & 3 of the Observer Certification process based on Teachscape, the current state approved technology.
Re-certification after year 3. The district will provide yearly calibration training using the state approved platform. The district will provide resources and support for individuals who need re-certification after year 3. Certificates must be submitted to Professional Development Coordinator upon completion.
8. Peer Observation
A Peer Observer will observe, collect, share evidence, and provide feedback for formative purposes only. Peer Observers will not score a teacher’s practice, nor will peer observation data be shared with anyone other than the Observee unless permission is granted.
All teachers will receive a peer observation in their summative year. All Peer Observers will complete the state developed training once every three (3) years. All required peer observations must be documented in CIITS. Pre-conferencing must be completed within FIVE school days of the scheduled observation. Post-conferencing must be completed within FIVE school days of the scheduled observation. The district will have a pool of qualified peer observers. Application or resume must be submitted
by May 31 to Superintendent or District Contact. o Qualifications Include:
4 years of experience teaching Good communication skills and respect by staff members Effective technology skills
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
15
o The expectations of Peer Observers are to: Complete SIX hours of training which include the Framework for Teaching, Peer
Observation Training, and conducting Pre- and post- conference conversations. After first year of training, Peer Observers will complete update training as
determined by the district. Complete PGES requirements of peer observation for teachers in their summative
year.o Compensation:
Each peer observer will be paid for the SIX hours of training ($15 per hour) Each peer observer will be given ONE day of release time for each teacher on his or
her caseload.
Teachers will select their top three choices for Peer Observer from the district pool. The principal will make the final Peer Observer assignment by September 1.
Each Peer Observer will have no more than THREE teachers assigned to his/her observation caseload in a school year.
Each Peer Observer will be allocated appropriate release time to complete the observation process.
9. Student Voice
The Student Voice Survey is a confidential, on-line survey that collects student feedback on specific aspects of the classroom experience and teaching practice.
All teachers will participate in the state-approved Student Voice Survey annually with a minimum of one identified group of students.
Student selection for participation must be consistent across the district. Results will be used to inform Professional Practice. Formative years’ data will be used to inform Professional Practice in the summative year. All teachers and appropriate administrative staff read, understand, and sign the district’s Student Voice
Ethics Statement. The Student Voice Survey will be administered between the hours of 7 AM and 5 PM local time. The survey will be administered in the school. Survey data will only be considered when 10 or more students are respondents. Instructional Supervisors are District Student Voice Survey Points-of-Contact. Process for Student Voice Survey:
o All teacher will participate in the Student Voice Survey annually with ONE identified group of students.
o Student Voice Survey will be completed by the first group of TEN or more students. If unique circumstances arise, please contact one of the district level contacts.
o Special Education teachers will survey their FIRST resource class of the day. If this class has fewer than 10 students, they will survey additional sections to meet the minimum of 10.
o Special Education Teacher who only have collaborative classes, will be surveyed by their first class of the day.
o Students are permitted accommodations according to IEP. The district will adhere to the state approved window for student voice administration. Principals will
submit school Student Voice Administration Schedule before the window opens.
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
16
A confidentiality agreement must be signed by the following: o Employees who have system administrative rightso Employees who have open data base connectivity access to the Infinite Campus database.o Employees who administer the K-2 Student Voice Survey.o All employees who would potentially have access to the Student Voice Survey.
See Appendix C Confidentiality Agreement (Page 64)
See Appendix D Parent Permission Form (Page 65)
D. Student Growth
The student growth measure is comprised of two possible contributions: a state contribution and a local contribution. The state contribution pertains to teachers of the following content areas and grade levels participating in state assessments:
4th – 8th Grade Reading Math
The state contribution is reported using Student Growth Percentiles (SGP). The local contribution uses the Student Growth Goal Setting Process and applies to all teachers in the district, including those who receive SGP. The following graphic provides a roadmap for determining which teachers receive which contributions:

1. State Contribution – Student Growth Percentiles (SGP)
The state contribution for student growth is a rating based on each student’s rate of change compared to other students with a similar test score history (“academic peers”) expressed as a percentile. The median SGP for a teacher’s class is compared to that of the state. The scale for determining acceptable growth will be determined by the Kentucky Board of Education and provided to the district by the Kentucky Department of Education.
2. Local Contribution – Student Growth Goals (SGG)
The local contribution for the student growth measure is a rating based on the degree to which a teacher meets the growth goal for a set of students over an identified interval of instruction (i.e. trimester, semester, year-long) as indicated in the teacher’s Student Growth Goal (SGG). All teachers, regardless of grade level and content area, will develop a SGG for inclusion in the student growth measure. All SGG will be determined by the teacher in collaboration with the principal and will be grounded in the fundamentals of assessment quality (Clear Purpose, Clear Targets, Sound Design, Effective Communication, and Student Involvement). All teachers will use the Think and Plan Tool to develop local student growth goals. See Appendix F on page 67.
Student Growth Goal Criteria
The SGG is congruent with Kentucky Core Academic Standards and appropriate for the grade level and content area for which it was developed.
The SGG represents or encompasses an enduring skill, process, understanding, or concept that students are expected to master by taking a particular course (or courses) in school.
The SGG will allow high- and low-achieving students to adequately demonstrate their knowledge. The SGG provides access and opportunity for all students, including students with disabilities, ELLs, and
gifted/talented students.
a. Rigor and Comparability of Student Growth Goals
To fulfill the criteria of measuring student growth at the local level, a protocol must be established to ensure rigorous and comparable growth measures used for all teachers.
All teachers will write a student growth goal based on the criteria Protocol for ensuring rigor Protocol for ensuring comparability
Rigor - Rigor means congruency to the Kentucky Core Academic Standards. In other words, the sources of evidence are defensible in terms of their suitability to allow students to meet or exceed the true intent of the standards being assessed.
Rigor Rubric - The district adopted a rubric for assessing the rigor of all SGG. See Clay County Rigor Rubric Appendix E (Page 66)
To ensure rigor of Student Growth Goals:
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
18
1. Teachers will meet with their Professional Learning Community (PLC) when developing their goals.
2. Teachers will utilize the Rigor Rubric (Appendix E) when working with their PLC to analyze and adjust the goal as dictated by the rubric.
3. Principals will meet with individual teachers to further analyze their completed SGG for rigor.
Comparability – Comparability means that data generated from similar classrooms would be interpreted in a comparable way (i.e., the use of common success criteria/rubric, performance expectations/performance levels) with respect to the intent of the standard. Data collected for the student growth goal must use comparable criteria across similar classrooms (classrooms that address the same standards) to determine progress toward mastery of standards/enduring skills. Examples of similar classrooms might be 6th grade science classrooms, 3rd grade classrooms, English I classrooms, band or art classes. For similar classrooms, teachers would be expected to use common measures or rubrics to determine competency in performance at the level intended by the standards being assessed. Although specific assessments may vary, the close alignment to the intent of the standard is comparable.
Comparability of SGGs The following list is acceptable for measuring student growth:o Pre-Post testo Research based assessmentso Performance taskso Repeated measures
Teachers will work within their PLC, using the Rigor/Comparability Rubric, to ensure comparability.
o Teachers will work collaboratively in teams to determine the enduring skills, concepts and processes to be measured, then develop appropriate assessment items for demonstrating mastery that are approved by the district.
Principal will then review the SGG to ensure assessments used are comparable. Assessments are comparable in terms of the criteria used to determine progress toward attainment of the standard.
District Level Rigor and Comparability Principals will submit SGGs from respective schools by October 1. District led jurying process including all principals will be utilized to ensure rigor and
comparability across the district. The link below will direct you to District Guidance for Assessments Used in Student Growth Goal Setting.
http://education.ky.gov/teachers/HiEffTeach/Documents/Assurances to Guide District Assessment Selection SGGs 10-24-13.docx
Principals will approve SGGs in CIITS for their respective school after rigor and comparability has been established. b. Determining Growth for a Single Student Growth Goal
The process for determining the result of student growth (high, expected, low) requires districts to explain how they will use rigorous and comparable (see above) goals and assessments for that rating.
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
19
Districts have several options to consider – none of which are mutually exclusive – for determining student growth.
Districts will create a process for determining student growth ratings as low, expected, and high. This process will apply to students who have been in the teacher’s classroom for 59% of the course-long interval of instruction.
Measures will be identified as indicators of determining growth. Acceptable evidence sources for measuring the progress and attainment of Student Growth Goals:
o Pre-Post testso Common Assessmentso Research Based Assessments o Performance Taskso Repeated Measures
*At least three evidence sources must be used. All teachers will utilize the following matrix for determining student growth as high, expected, or low.

3. Products of Practice/Other Sources of Evidence
Teachers may provide additional evidences to support assessment of their own professional practice. These evidences should yield information related to the teacher’s practice within the domains.
Observations conducted by certified supervisor observer(s) Student voice survey(s) Self-reflection and professional growth plans Other sources of evidence that can be used to support educator practice include the following: (not a
comprehensive list)
Program Review evidence Team-developed curriculum units Lesson plans Communication logs Timely, targeted feedback from mini or informal observations Student data records Student work Student formative and/or summative course evaluations/feedback Minutes from PLCs Teacher reflections and/or self-reflections Teacher interviews Teacher committee or team contributions Parent engagement surveys Records of student and/or teacher attendance Video lessons Engagement in professional organizations Action research Other: Describe
E. Determining the Overall Performance Category
Supervisors are responsible for determining an Overall Performance Category for each teacher at the conclusion of their summative evaluation year. The Overall Performance Category is informed by the educator’s ratings on professional practice and student growth. The evaluator determines the Overall Performance Category based on professional judgment informed by evidence that demonstrates the educator's performance against the Domains, district-developed rubrics (see local contribution for student growth), and decision rules that establish a common understanding of performance thresholds to which all educators are held.
Step 1: Rating Professional PracticeThe Kentucky Framework for Teaching stands as the critical rubric for providing educators and evaluators with concrete descriptions of practice associated with specific domains. Each element describes a discrete behavior or related set of behaviors that educators and evaluators can prioritize for evidence gathering, feedback, and eventually, evaluation. Supervisors will organize and analyze evidence for each individual educator based on these concrete descriptions of practice.
Supervisors and educators will be engaged in ongoing dialogue throughout the evaluation cycle. The process Clay County Public Schools
Certified Evaluation Plan21
concludes with the evaluator’s analysis of evidence and the final assessment of practice in relation to performance described under each Domain at the culmination of an educator’s cycle. A summative rating for each domain based on evidence will be recorded in CIITS.

Step 2: Rating Overall Student Growth
The overall Student Growth Rating is a result of a combination of professional judgment and the district-developed instrument for summative student growth ratings. The designed instrument aids the supervisor in applying professional judgment to multiple evidences of student growth over time. The Student Growth Rating must include data from SGG and SGP (where available), and will be considered in a three-year cycle (when available).
SGG and SGP (when available) will be used to determine overall Student Growth Rating Three years of student growth data (when available) will be used to determine overall Student Growth
Rating for teachers. If a teacher does not qualify for a SGP from state, their SGG (local) will be their only SGG rating. See
Clay County Local Student Growth Goal Matrix. You will proceed to Step 3 to determine the teacher’s overall performance level.
If a teacher has a SGP from state, KDE will supply the rating of Low, Expected or High. Use the following matrix to determine the teacher’s overall Student Growth Rating Clay County Combined Overall Student Growth Matrix to apply in Step 3.
The Clay County Combined Overall Student Growth Matrix below reflects local goal ratings being more impactful for overall Student Growth rating.

II. Professional Growth and Effectiveness System – Principal and Assistant Principal
The vision for the Professional Growth and Effectiveness System (PGES) is to have every school led by an effective principal. The goal is to create a fair and equitable system to measure principal effectiveness and act as a catalyst for professional growth.
A. Roles and Definitions
1. Administrator: means an administrator who devotes the majority of employed time in the role of principal, for which administrative certification is required by the Education Professional Standards Board pursuant to 16 KAR 3:050
2. Documentation: Artifacts created in the day-to-day world of running a schools that can provide evidence of meeting the performance standard.
3. Evaluator: the immediate supervisor of certified personnel, who has satisfactorily completed all required evaluation training and, if evaluating teachers, observation certification training.
4. Evaluatee: District/School personnel that is being evaluated5. Observation/School Site Visits: Provides information on a wide range of contributions made by
principals. Observations/school site visits may range from watching how a principal interacts with others, to observing programs and shadowing the administrator.
6. Performance Levels: General descriptors that indicate the principal’s performance. Principal can be rated Ineffective, Developing, Accomplished, or Exemplary on this scale.
7. Performance Rubrics: A behavioral summary scale that describes acceptable performance levels for each of the seven performance standards.
8. Performance Standards: Guiding standards that provide for a defined set of common purposes and expectations that guide effective leadership. Those standards include: Instructional Leadership, School Climate, Human Resources Management, Organizational Management, Communication and Community Relations, Professionalism and Student Growth.
9. Professional Growth Plan: An individualized plan that is focused on improving professional practice and leadership skills and is aligned with educator performance standards and student performance standards, is built using a variety of sources and types of student data that reflect student needs and strengths, educator data, and school/district data, is produced in consultation with the evaluator
10. Self-Reflection: means the process by which certified personnel assess the effectiveness and adequacy of their knowledge and performance for the purpose of identifying areas for professional learning and growth
11. SMART Criteria: Acronym used to develop a goal(s) Specific, Measurable, Appropriate, Realistic, Time-Bound.
12. Site Visit: Methods by which superintendents may gain insight into whether principlas are meeting the performance standards.
13. Surveys: Tools used to provide information to principals about perception of job performance
16. For Additional Definitions and Roles, please see 704KAR 3:370 Professional Growth and Effectiveness System
B. Principal Professional Growth and Effectiveness System Components – Overview and Summative Model
The following graphic outlines the summative model for the Principal Professional Growth and Effectiveness System.
Evaluators will look for trends and patterns in practice across multiple types of evidence and apply their professional judgment based on this evidence when evaluating a principal. The role of evidence and professional judgment in the determination of ratings on standards and an overall rating is paramount in this process. However, professional judgment is grounded in a common framework: the Principal Performance Standards.

C. Principal Performance Standards
The Principal Performance Standards are designed to support student achievement and professional best-practice through the standards of Instructional Leadership; School Climate; Human Resource Management; Organizational Management; Communication & Community Relations; and Professionalism. Included in the Performance Standards are Performance Indicators that provide examples of observable, tangible behaviors that provide evidence of each standard. The Performance Standards provide the structure for feedback for continuous improvement through individual goals that target professional growth, thus supporting overall student achievement and school improvement. Evidence supporting a principal’s professional practice will be situated within one or more of the 6 standards. Performance will be rated for each standard according to the four performance levels: Ineffective, Developing, Accomplished, and Exemplary. It is important to note that the expected performance level is “Accomplished,” but a good rule of thumb is that it is expected that a principal will “live in Accomplished but occasionally visit Exemplary”. The summative rating will be a holistic representation of performance, combining data from multiple sources of evidence across each standard.
The use of professional judgment based on multiple sources of evidence promotes a more holistic and comprehensive analysis of practice, rather than over-reliance on one individual data point or rote calculation of practice based on predetermined formulas. Evaluators will also take into account how principals respond to or apply additional supports and resources designed to promote student learning, as well as their own professional growth and development. Finally, professional judgment gives evaluators the flexibility to account for a wide variety of factors related to individual principal performance. These factors may include school-specific priorities that may drive practice in one standard, an educator’s number of goals, experience level and/or leadership opportunities, and contextual variables that may impact the learning environment, such as unanticipated outside events or traumas.
Evaluators must use the following categories of evidence in determining overall ratings: Required Sources of Evidence
o Professional Growth Planning and Self-Reflectiono Site-Visitso Val-Ed 360°o Working Conditions Goal (Based on TELL KY)o State and Local Student Growth Goal datao
Evaluators may use the following categories of evidence in determining overall ratings: Other Measures of Student Learning Products of Practice Other Sources (e.g. surveys)
D. Professional PracticeThe following sections provide a detailed overview of the various sources of evidence used to inform Professional Practice Ratings.
1. Professional Growth Planning and Self-Reflection – completed by principals & assistant principals
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
47
The Professional Growth Plan will address realistic, focused, and measurable professional goals. The plan will connect data from multiple sources including site-visit conferences, data on student growth and achievement, and professional growth needs identified through self-assessment and reflection. Self-reflection improves principal practice through ongoing, careful consideration of the impact of leadership practice on student growth and achievement.
Reflective practices and professional growth planning are iterative processes. The principal (1) reflects on his or her current growth needs based on multiple sources of data and identifies an area or areas for focus; (2) collaborates with his or her supervisor to develop a professional growth plan and action steps; (3) implements the plan; (4) regularly reflects on the progress and impact of the plan on his or her professional practice; (5) modifies the plan as appropriate; (6) continues implementation and ongoing reflection; (7) and, finally, conducts a summative reflection on the degree of goal attainment and the implications for next steps.
Self-reflection improves principal practice through ongoing, careful consideration of the impact of leadership practice on student growth and achievement. The Professional Growth Plan is the vehicle through which the outcomes of self-reflection are organized, articulated as specific goals, contextualized in a support framework, and monitored through pre-determined methods. Together, the multiple measures of self-reflection and professional growth planning provide critical information in determining a rating for each standard.
All principals and assistant principals will participate in self-reflection and professional growth planning each year. All principals will participate in self-reflection and professional growth planning each year. All assistant principals will participate in self-reflection and professional growth planning each year. Self-Reflection /PGP will be submitted in CIITS for approval by October 1.

2. Site-Visits – completed by supervisor of principal – formal site visits are not required for assistant principals
Site visits are a method by which the superintendent may gain insight into the principal’s practice in relation to the standards. During a site visit, the superintendent will discuss various aspects of the job with the principal, and will use the principal’s responses to determine issues to further explore with the faculty and staff. Additionally, the principal may explain the successes and trials the school community has experienced in relation to school improvement. The superintendent or designee conducts site visits.
First formal site visit must be completed by November 30. Second formal site visit must be completed by March 31. Site visits should have a minimum duration of one hour with a recommended half to full day. A conference between the superintendent and/or designee and the principal will occur within 10
working days of each site visit. Feedback should include reference to the performance indicators for each principal standard to
find examples of behaviors that support a degree of effectiveness for that standard.
3. Val-Ed 360° - completed for principals – not completed for assistant principals
The VAL-ED 360° is an assessment that provides feedback on a principal’s learning-centered behaviors by using input from the principal, his/her supervisor, and teachers. All teachers will participate in the Val-Ed 360°. The results of the survey will be included as a source of data to inform each principal’s professional practice rating.
Conducted at least once every two years in the school year that TELL Kentucky is not administered. Instructional Supervisors will be the points of contact for overseeing and administering Val-Ed 360°. Val-Ed 360° will be administered each year during the fall semester. Val-Ed 360° results will be used as self-reflection (embedded throughout the system) as a purpose
of self-improvement. This will enable the principal to target areas for professional learning. Superintendent and designees will have access to Val-Ed 360°.
4. Working Conditions Goal (Goal inherited by Assistant Principal)
Principals are responsible for setting a 2-year Working Conditions Growth Goal based on the most recent TELL Kentucky Survey. The principal’s effort to accomplish the Working Conditions Growth Goal is a powerful way to enhance professional performance.
Connecting TELL Kentucky data to principal performance involves building the capacity for principals and their superintendents to interpret and use TELL Kentucky data to set a target goal for Working Conditions improvement that connects to the Principal Performance Standards and impacts the working conditions within their building. Setting goals—not just any goals, but goals based on whole staff feedback—is a powerful way to enhance professional performance and, in turn, positively impact school culture and student success. Principals are responsible for setting a 2-year Working Conditions Growth Goal that is based on the most recent TELL Kentucky Survey.
Developed following the completion of the TELL Kentucky Survey. Minimum of one 2-year goal. A minimum of ONE Working Conditions Goals is required.
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
49
Working Conditions Goal rubric will be established in collaboration with the Superintendent and/or other designated supervisors according to the criteria below.
Working Conditions Goal Rubric CriteriaExemplary Exceed GoalAccomplished Expected OutcomeIneffective or Developing Goal has not been met
Formative data will be reviewed with the Superintendent or designee at the mid-year review before December 31st.
Principals may use anonymous staff surveys or other evidence to inform the Working Conditions Goal(s).
5. Products of Practice/Other Sources of Evidence
Principals/Assistant Principals may provide additional evidences to support assessment of their own professional practice. These evidences should yield information related to the principal’s/assistant principal’s practice within the domains.
SBDM Minutes Faculty Meeting Agendas and Minutes Department/Grade Level Agendas and Minutes PLC Agendas and Minutes Leadership Team Agendas and Minutes Instructional Round/Walk-through documentation Budgets EILA/Professional Learning experience documentation Surveys Professional Organization memberships Parent/Community engagement surveys Parent/Community engagement events documentation School schedules
6. Student Growth
The following sections provide a detailed overview of the various sources of evidence used to inform Student Growth Ratings. At least one (1) of the Student Growth Goals set by the Principal must address gap populations. Assistant Principals will inherit the SGG (both state and local contributions) of the Principal.
a. State Contribution – ASSIST/Next Generation Learners (NGL) Goal Based on Trajectory (Goal inherited by Assistant Principal)
Principals are responsible for setting at least one student growth goal that is tied directly to the Comprehensive School Improvement Plan located in ASSIST. The superintendent and the principal will meet to discuss the trajectory for the goal and to establish the year’s goal that will help reach the long-term trajectory target. New goals are identified each year based on the ASSIST goals. The goal should
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
50
be customized for the school year with the intent of helping improve student achievement and reaching the long term goals through on-going improvement.
Selection based on ASSIST/NGL trajectory. Based on Gap population unless Local goal is based on Gap population. Interim trajectory goals are based on the Delivery Targets from School Report Card. Growth Rating and Criteria
o Low Growth – Greater than 10% below the SGGo Expected Growth – Meets the SGG or within 10% points below the SGGo High Growth – Exceeds the SGG
b. Local Contribution – Based on School Need (Goal inherited by Assistant Principal)
The local goal for Student Growth should be based on school need. It may be developed to parallel the State Contribution or it may be developed with a different focus.
Based on Gap population unless State goal is based on Gap population. A principal MUST have a minimum of one local goal. The local goal for Student Growth should be based on school need. The principal may use
researched based assessments, pre/post-test data, performance data, or repeated measures data when giving interim trajectory predictions for growth.
Growth Rating and Criteriao Low Growth – Greater than 10% below the SGGo Expected Growth – Meets the SGG or within 10% points below the SGGo High Growth – Exceeds the SGG
E. Determining the Overall Performance Category Superintendents are responsible for determining an Overall Performance Category for each principal at the conclusion of their summative evaluation year. The Overall Performance Category is informed by the principal’s ratings on professional practice and student growth.
1. Rating Overall Professional Practice Use decision rules to determine an overall rating. Record ratings in CIITS Evaluators and principals will be engaged in ongoing dialogue throughout the evaluation cycle. The process
concludes with the evaluator’s analysis of evidence and the final assessment of practice in relation to performance described under each Standard at the culmination of an educator’s cycle. Each standard shall be scored in CIITS by the superintendent or designee by April 15th of each year.
Each standard after receiving an overall rating will be assigned a numeric value. The scores will be added to give an overall score. The two charts below will be used in conjunction to determine and Overall Professional Practice Score:

DateThe Professional Growth Plan will address realistic, focused, and measurable professional goals. The plan will connect data from multiple sources including classroom observation feedback, student voice results if available, data on student growth and achievement, and professional growth needs identified through self-assessment and reflection. In collaboration with the administrators, teachers will identify explicit goals that will drive the focus of professional growth activities, support, and on-going reflection.
Reflective practices and professional growth planning are iterative processes. The teacher (1) reflects on his or her current growth needs based on multiple sources of data and identifies an area or areas for focus; (2) collaborates with his or her administrator to develop a professional growth plan and action steps; (3) implements the plan; (4) regularly reflects on the progress and impact of the plan on his or her professional practice; (5) modifies the plan as appropriate; (6) continues implementation and ongoing reflection; (7) and, finally, conducts a summative reflection on the degree of goal attainment and the implications for next steps.

Appendix F: Think and Plan Guidance for Developing Student Growth GoalsPurpose: This document is a summary form a teacher completes for conferencing with their administrator. The column to the right provides guidance, detail, and hyperlinks for completing the process and the template.
Identify the context of the identified class, as selected by teacher in collaboration with principal, including student population.
Identify the course-long interval of instruction (e.g., trimester, semester, one school year).
Identify the content area enduring skills*, concepts, and/or processes that your goal will target. (In the KCAS for Mathematics, the “Enduring Understandings” reflect the enduring learning advocated in the goal-setting for student growth process.) Content area examples: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, Social Studies, Science, Reading Foundational Skills, PE, Health, World Language, Music, Art
Guiding Questions
In collaboration with colleagues, identify the enduring skills*, concepts, and processes for my content area (facilitator’s guide, process pptx, example). Based on my content standards, what are the enduring skills*, concepts and
processes students should master by the end of the school year/course? Do the identified skills, concepts and processes represent essential learning that:
ENDURES beyond a single test date, is of value in other disciplines, is relevant beyond the classroom, is worthy of embedded, course-long focus, and may necessary for the next level of instruction (next grade or future course)?
What does it look like for students to be performing at proficiency level on these skills, concepts and processes? How do I know?

Step 1: DETERMINE NEEDS
List the sources of evidence you will use to establish baseline data and measure student growth.
Pinpoint areas of need based on my current students' abilities. Are there any enduring skills*, concepts or processes my students lack overall?
What are the biggest areas of need? What are my students’ abilities? How have I collected and analyzed evidence/data
to determine patterns, trends, strengths and weaknesses for all students? (e.g., formative processes, analysis of student work, anecdotal notes, last year's data, previous teachers)
Are the areas of need identified appropriate for a year-long/course-long student growth goal?
Decide on sources of evidence. After identifying an area or areas of need, choose the sources of evidence (e.g., rubrics, classroom assessments, performances, products, portfolios, projects, district learning checks) for collecting baseline, mid-term, and end of year/course data for the student growth goal.Note: At least three sources of evidence are recommended for contributing to baseline data. Do the sources of evidence provide the data needed to demonstrate proficiency for
the identified area(s) of need? Can the sources of evidence be used to provide baseline data, comparable mid-term
data, and end of year/course data? Do the sources of evidence require students to meet or exceed the true intent of
the standards being assessed? (This addresses both rigor of the evidence and comparability.)
Is there a good match between the rigor of the standard to be assessed and the method used to collect evidence? (For instance, if the best way to determine if students are meeting the rigor of a standard is a performance, then the task should be a performance that demonstrates where students are in meeting mastery of that standard. See Classroom Assessment for Student Learning resources on Target-Method Match.)
Use baseline data to determine area(s) of need for the goal What did I learn from collection of data? How will I combine data to determine a baseline for my SGG?
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
68
Specify the expected growth and proficiency.Include a growth target that expresses the growth you expect your students to make.
Include a proficiency target.
Write your student growth goal statement that meets the SMART criteria. Include both growth and proficiency.
Explain the rationale for the goal. Include reference to baseline data and explanation of how targets meet the expectation for rigor.
Decide on a student growth goal (SGG) that meets the SMART criteria.SPECIFIC Is the identified area of need significant enough for year-
long/course-long instructional focus? Does the goal address learning that is representative of the
enduring skills*, concepts and/or processes that:o ENDURES beyond a single test date,o is of value in other disciplines,o is relevant beyond the classroom,o is worthy of embedded, course-long focus,o may be necessary for the next level of
instruction?MEASURABLE Does the goal identify the sources of evidence/measures
that will be used to show how all students will demonstrate growth?
Do the sources of evidence provide the data needed to accurately measure where students are in mastering the grade level standards for the identified areas(s) of need?
Which criteria were used for determining what amount of growth is rigorous for students? Why was this criteria selected?
Does the goal include a growth target and proficiency target?
APPROPRIATE Is the goal standards-based and directly related to the
subject and students taught? Is there a good match between the goal and the level of
rigor expected in the identified standards?REALISTIC Is the goal doable, but rigorous enough to stretch the outer
bounds of what is attainable?TIMEBOUND Is the goal designed to stretch across the interval of
instruction (e.g., trimester, semester, one school year)? Is there sufficient time within the interval of instruction to
determine goal attainment?Sample Student Growth Goals 2014
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
69
Step 2: CREATE A SPECIFIC LEARNING GOAL
Determine the measure for identifying H, E, L growth and for identifying proficiency. (Rubric, etc.) Define H, E, L growth and proficiency based on the identified measure.
High, Expected, Low determination Has the teacher identified “expected” as the desired
outcome? How will the teacher address achievement of growth but
not proficiency? How will the teacher address the achievement of
proficiency but not growth?
Describe professional learning (PL) needed to support students’ attainment of the student growth goal. (Include any PL needs in your Professional Growth Plan.)
Describe the instructional strategies for goal attainment, specifically what you will do instructionally to assure your students make gains projected in your student growth goal.
Determine professional learning What professional learning is needed to support the SGG? How can a professional learning community/colleagues’
expertise provide support? Does the Professional Growth Plan (PGP) reflect the
support needed to meet the goal?
Decide on instructional strategies for goal attainment How do I identify the instructional strategies that will most
effectively support students in attaining the SGG? What resources and supports do I need to implement
these strategies with my students?
Clay County Public SchoolsCertified Evaluation Plan
70
Step 3: CREATE AND IMPLEMENT TEACHING AND LEARNING STRATEGIES
Describe your plan to monitor students’ progress toward goal attainment. Plan for progress monitoring
How and when will I monitor progress towards the SGG throughout the year/course?
What formative assessment processes will I use for progress monitoring?
How will I involve students in progress monitoring? How will I provide all students multiple opportunities
and/or assessment types to demonstrate learning of the selected standards?
How will specific feedback occur regularly to move students forward in their learning?
Do not complete this box until the end of the growth goal timeline. Analyze results: Analyze the summative/post-assessment data to determine goal attainment and reflect on next steps. What does the data reveal about student growth? What does the data show about instructional practices? How can these results inform professional growth?
