model and abandoned the checklist
evaluation system

teachers to receive evaluations

A High Level of
Collaboration
 A High Level of Collaboration among
the teacher evaluation committee as
well as the administrator evaluation
committee. The union is part of both
committees.
 We have recently formed a noninstructional evaluation committee and
a there has been a similar
collaborative culture
Teachscape
 We are ahead of the game and leaders with
the training that we have been providing
 We are requiring all administrators that
evaluate teachers to take the teachscape
class and Test.
 Average about 20-30 practice hours on-line
 The assessment takes between 5-7 hours to
complete
 Over 80 administrators have been through
the training – We start our 3rd cohort this
year
Teachscape
Our current model is based on a
the 2005 Danielson model which
has been modified
We are now planning to move to
the 2013 Danielson model
We are confident that this will be
one of the state approved models
We are also going to move to a full
on-line evaluation tool via the
Teachscape Reflection mode
Weighted Formula
 75% will be based on Observation Protocol and
the 5 Standards for Effective Teaching.
 This includes observations (formal and not
formal), walkthroughs, other performance
measures that are related to the teacher
evaluation rubric which includes all 5
standards. Professional Responsibilities are
included as one of the standards.
25% Growth Data
 5% District growth based on state
accountability measures
 10% Building Growth
 10% Classroom Growth
10% Building Growth Data
 Based on multiple measures which must include
NWEA (reading, Language Usage, math and
science), Explore, Plan, MME and State
Accountability growth measures (when state
data is made available).
10% Classroom Growth Data
 Based on NWEA for the specific subject
area, State Assessments, Classroom
Assessments, DRA, Performance or
product measures, other formative
assessments, pre and post tests
(specific % proficient) are required.
5% District Growth
 Based on state accountability measures
and other student growth measures
available to the District. We will
continue to monitor state progress in
this area.
Proposed Legislation
 There are different bills being debated
in Lansing
 We would have thought that they
would have passed something by now
since their initial deadline was April
2012
 However, that has not occurred
Non instructional evaluations
 We have held committee meetings
 We are looking to get the evaluations in
personnel files
 It will be a positive experience for most.
 Safe guards for employees that might not
receive effective ratings and required
written documentation
 Working in positive cooperation with the
union.
Administrator Evaluation
 Still not sure what will happen here
but it is possible that we will have to
choose one of the state approved
models.
 3 models
 Marzano, Doug Reeves, and MASA
