New York State’s Teacher and Leader Evaluation System www.engageNY.org
Teacher and Leader Evaluation System 20% State Provided Growth 20% Local Measures 60 points www.engageNY.org 2
20 % State Provided Growth • 20 % State (will become 25% when value Added Model is adopted by Board of Regents). • 20% State for 4-8 ELA and Math – SGP – Student Growth Percentiles will be provided to districts. • 20% State determined growth goal setting process referred to as the Student Learning Objective process. 3 www.engageNY.org
Locally-Selected Measures • Growth and local measures must be different from one another • To ensure comparability, select the same measure across all classrooms in the same grade/subject and/or for all principals in same or similar programs/buildings • The State-approved list meets prescribed criteria for comparability and rigor; districts/BOCES who develop assessments will need to verify comparability and rigor • Collective bargaining considerations www.engageNY.org 4
Rigorous Rigorous means that the locally-selected measure is: • Aligned to the NYS learning standards • To the extent practicable , the assessment must be valid and reliable as defined by the standards for Educational and Psychological Testing 5 www.engageNY.org
Comparable Locally-comparable across classrooms means: • The same locally-selected measures of student achievement or growth are used across all classrooms in the same grade/subject in the district or BOCES. • A district may use more than one type of locally- selected measure for different groups of teachers within a grade/subject if the district/BOCES verifies comparability in accordance with the standards of Educational and Psychological testing. • For principals, the same locally-selected measure(s) must be used for all principals in the same or similar program or grade configuration in that school district or BOCES. www.engageNY.org 6
Measures for Teachers Using State/Regents Assessments Measures based on several options: 1. State assessments, Regents, examination, and/or Regent-equivalents. These include: a. The change in percentage of a teacher’s students who achieve a specific level of performance as determined locally, on such assessments/examinations in the previous year. b. Teacher-specific growth computed by NYSED based on % of the teacher’s students earning a State -determined level of growth. Methodology to translate such growth into State- established sub-component scoring ranges shall be determined locally. c. Other teacher-specific growth or achievement measure using State, Regents, and/or department approved alternative examinations computed in a manner determined locally. www.engageNY.org 7
Measures for Teachers Using All Other Options 2. State-approved list of 3rd party assessments 3. District, regional, or BOCES-developed assessment 4. School-wide growth or achievement results based on: a. State-provided school-wide growth score for all students taking State ELA or Math assessments in grades 4-8 b. Locally-computed measure based on State, State approved 3rd party, or a district, regional, or BOCES- developed assessment 5. SLOs used with any of the following (option is only for teachers without a State-approved Growth or Value- Added measure for Growth subcomponent): – Any State, approved 3rd party, or district/ regional/ BOCES- developed assessment www.engageNY.org 8
Measures for Principals of Elementary and/or Middle Schools 1. Achievement levels on State assessments (% proficient or advanced) in ELA and Math Grades 4-8. 2. Growth or achievement for student subgroups (SWD, ELL) on State assessments in ELA and Math Grades 4-8. 3. Growth or achievement of students in ELA and Math (Grades 4-8) starting at specific performance levels (e.g., Level 1, Level 2) on State or other assessments. 4. SLOs used with any of the following (option is only for principals without a State-approved Growth or Value-Added measure for Growth subcomponent): – Any State, approved 3rd party, or district/ regional/ BOCES- developed assessment that is rigorous and comparable across classrooms. 5. Student performance on any district-wide locally-selected assessments approved for use in teacher evaluations. www.engageNY.org 9
Measures for Principals of High Schools 1. Percent of cohort achieving specified scores on Regents exams, AP, IB, or other Regents-equivalents. 2. Graduation rates (4, 5, 6 years) and/or dropout rates. 3. Graduation % with Advanced Regents designation and/or honors. 4. Credit accumulation (e.g., 9 th and 10 th grade) or other strong predictor of progress toward graduation. 5. SLOs used with any of the following ( option is only for principals without a State-approved Growth or Value- Added measure for Growth subcomponent) : – Any State, approved 3rd party, or district/ regional/ BOCES- developed assessment that is rigorous and comparable across classrooms. 6. Student performance on any district-wide locally-selected assessments approved for use in teacher evaluations. www.engageNY.org 10
HEDI Criteria for Locally-Selected Measures www.engageNY.org 11
Determining HEDI Criteria: Locally-Selected Measures Standards for Locally-selected Measures of Rating growth or achievement Categories Results are well-above District or BOCES - adopted expectations for growth or achievement Highly for grade/subject. Effective Results meet District or BOCES-adopted expectations for growth or achievement for Effective grade/subject. Results are below District or BOCES-adopted expectations for growth or achievement for Developing grade/subject. Results are well-below District or BOCES- adopted expectations for growth or achievement Ineffective for grade/subject. www.engageNY.org 12
HEDI for Locally-Selected Measures • Must be collectively bargained. • Must describe a district-adopted level of expectation for every grade/subject although can use generic expectations. • Expectations can be based on either growth or achievement of students. www.engageNY.org 13
Setting HEDI Criteria – Three Examples After considering previous student performance, normative data, 3 rd party data reports, district thresholds, district values/ priorities, districts have choices: Choice One: Set specific growth OR ACHIEVEMENT expectations by grade/subject (for all or some grades/subjects). Choice Two: Set generic growth OR ACHIEVEMENT expectations for students across grades/subjects. Choice Three: Set generic expectations for students meeting their individualized growth OR ACHIEVEMENT expectations across grades and subject. www.engageNY.org 14
Examples of Different Approaches to Setting District Expectations GROWTH: ACHIEVEMENT: change in student results between student results at end of year two points in time Level of growth over baseline (e.g., 20 Achievement level (e.g., score 85 out percentage points growth) of 100, Level 3 out of 4) Level of growth required given starting Achieve proficiency (or achieve point to be on track advanced level) Growth vs. a benchmark (State average Achievement versus a benchmark growth, district average growth, vendor- (State or district average achievement, provided benchmark) vendor-provided benchmark) Subgroup growth (lowest or highest Subgroup achievement achieving students; SWDs; ELLs) www.engageNY.org 15
HEDI Points… for Locally-Selected Measures Remember that points are different for teachers in grades/subjects with value- added measures and those without: Locally-Selected Where state- Where NO state- Measures of Growth provided value- provided value- or Achievement: added measure added measure applies for Growth applies for Growth Highly Effective 14-15 18-20 Effective 8-13 9-17 Developing 3-7 3-8 Ineffective 0-2 0-2 www.engageNY.org 16
