1. The critical importance of teacher and leadership quality
2. The professional nature of teaching and leading a school
3. The belief in professional learning as an underpinning of the new evaluation system
4. The understanding that the career continuum must be addressed in the new evaluation system
5. The system must determine the balance of “inputs or acts” and “outputs or results”

In Washington…
A capital “G!” indicates that the guidance represents Washington state law (RCW) or rules (WAC).
A lower-case “g” indicates that the guidance represents research-based best practice but is not mandated by law or rules.

scholarship5. Effort toward improvement
when needed6. Interest in pupils,

Discussion: Identifying where in our preparation programs principal candidates encounter criteria Likely in many places
Different labels and names for the same thing
Looking for overlap
Let’s look at the criteria again.
Where Are the New Criteria in Our Program?

1.Creating a school culture that promotes ongoing improvement of learning and teaching for students and staff
2.Providing for school safety
3.Leads development, implementation, and evaluation of a data-driven plan for increasing student achievement, including the use of multiple student data elements
4.Assisting instructional staff with alignment of curriculum, instructional and assessment with state and local district learning goals
5.Monitoring, assisting, and evaluating effective instruction and assessment practices

8.Demonstrating commitment to closing the achievement gap
New Criteria for Principal Evaluation G!RCW 28A.405.100

AWSP’s leadership framework is directly aligned to the criteria. No crosswalk is needed.
The Marzano leadership framework does have a crosswalk, which includes the domain, performance levels, and possible evidence sources aligned to each criteria.

Learning III: Understanding Student Growth Measures
Understand how growth of student learning is a measure of principal performance
21
Student Achievement: The status of subject-matter knowledge, understandings, and skills at one point in time.
Student Growth (Learning): The growth in subject-matter knowledge, understandings, and skill over time.
Defining Key Terms
It is student growth, not student achievement, that is relevant in
demonstrating impacts teachers and principals have on students.
22
Both E2SSB 6696 and ESSB 5895 contain language around student growth, including: Student growth data that is
relevant to the teacher and subject matter must be a factor in the evaluation process and must be based on multiple measures that can include classroom-based, school-based, district-based, and state-based tools. Student growth means the change in student achievement between two points in time.
Changes… Student growth data must be a
substantial factor in evaluating the summative performance of certificated classroom teachers for at least three of the evaluation criteria.
Student growth data elements may include the teacher’s performance as a member of a grade-level, subject matter, or other instructional team within a school when the use of these data is relevant and appropriate.
ESSB 5895 Establishes New Definitions Around Student Growth Measures G!
RCW 28A.405.100
23
Includes multiple measures of student learning—not just test scores.
Teachers and principals work together to set appropriate baseline scores and achievement goals.
Goals can be based on grade level, subject area, classroom context.
Measures must demonstrate student learning of content.
Includes measure of collaborative effort to raise achievement across several classrooms, subject areas, grade levels.
Must be aligned with curriculum, measured in a specific time frame, and related to state, district, and school goals.

Establishing Student Growth Goals
26
The TPEP Steering Committee organizations approved statewide rubrics for student growth to ensure consistency in implementation of the evaluation system across Washington State. The rubrics for student growth describe both goal
setting and outputs of student learning. OSPI has provided student growth rubrics for
each of the three criteria Principals: 3, 5, and 8

Three Student Growth Criteria 3. Leading the development, implementation and
evaluation of a data-driven plan for increasing student achievement, including the use of multiple student data elements. Provides evidence of student growth that results from
the school improvement planning process. 5. Monitoring, assisting, and evaluating effective
instruction and assessment practices. Provides evidence of student growth of selected
teachers. 8. Demonstrating a commitment to closing the
achievement gap. Provides evidence of growth in student learning.
