Student Growth Weight: 25%

Student growth and assessment data used for evaluating ISD administrators who are regularly involved in instruction must be the aggregate student growth and assessment data that are used in teacher annual year‐end evaluations for teachers employed by the intermediate school district. Districts should establish a student growth model to be used for teacher and administrator evaluations. NOTE: Student growth and student achievement are not the same. Student achievement is a single measure of student performance while student growth measures the amount of students’ academic progress between two points in time

Appendix A – Research Base

National Policy Board for Educational Administration (2015). Professional Standards for Educational Leaders 2015. Reston, VA: Author.

The 2015 Standards are the result of an extensive process that took an in‐depth look at the new education leadership landscape. It involved a thorough review of empirical research (see the Bibliography for a selection of supporting sources) and sought the input of researchers and more than 1,000 school and district leaders through surveys and focus groups to identify gaps among the 2008 Standards, the day‐to‐day work of education leaders and leadership demands of the future. The National Association of Elementary School Principals, National Association of Secondary School Principals and American Association of School Administrators were instrumental to this work. The public was also invited to comment on two drafts of the Standards, which contributed to the final product. The National Policy

Board for Education Administration, a consortium of professional organizations committed to advancing school leadership (including those named above), has assumed leadership of the 2015 Standards in recognition of their significance to the profession and will be their steward going forward.

Mid‐continent Research for Education and Learning (2006). School District Leadership that Works: The Effect of Superintendent Leadership on Student Achievement. Denver, CO: Author.

To determine the influence of district superintendents on student achievement and the characteristics of effective superintendents, McREL, a Denver‐based education research organization, conducted a meta‐analysis of research—a sophisticated research technique that combines data from separate studies into a single sample of research—on the influence of school district leaders on student performance. This study is the latest in a series of meta‐analyses that McREL has conducted over the past several years to determine the characteristics of effective schools, leaders and teachers. This most recent meta‐analysis examines findings from 27 studies conducted since 1970 that used rigorous, quantitative methods to study the influence of school district leaders on student achievement. Altogether, these studies involved 2,817 districts and the achievement scores of 3.4 million students, resulting in what McREL researchers believe to be the largest‐ever quantitative examination of research on superintendents.

Appendix B – Process for Completing Year‐End Evaluation for Administrator Planning: At the beginning of the year in which the evaluation is to occur, the superintendent/administrator convene a meeting and agree upon the following items:

• Evaluation instrument

• Evaluation timeline and key dates

• Performance goals (if necessary beyond performance indicators outlined in rubric, district‐wide improvement goals and student growth model)

• Appropriate benchmarks and checkpoints (formal and informal) throughout year

• Artifacts to be used to evidence administrator performance

• Process for compiling the year‐end evaluation

Appendix C – Conducting the Formal Evaluation and Conference Prior to meeting:

1) Administrator prepares self‐evaluation, compiles evidence and provides to superintendent/supervisor.

2) Superintendent/supervisor seek clarity as needed regarding self‐evaluation or evidence provided.

Appendix D – Establishing Performance Goals for the Administrator

The VBISD Administrator Evaluation Tool provides a framework for evaluating the administrator in critical areas of professional practice as well as the state‐ required components of student growth and progress towards district‐wide goals. Additional performance goals should be established in exceptional circumstances to clarify the expectations and give priority to the work being done. For this reason, performance goals should be limited in number, aligned to district goals and assist in clarifying accountability.

Administrator performance goals may be developed from:

A specific district goal

A job performance indicator within an evaluation instrument

Student performance data

When establishing performance goals, the following guidelines should be considered:

Decide on desired results

Develop performance indicators

Identify supporting documentation (evidence)

Review and approve final performance goals, indicators and evidence

Monitor progress at scheduled checkpoints

Performance Goal Fundamentals

Performance goals should be S‐M‐A‐R‐T:

Specific—Goals should be simplistically written and clearly define what is expected.

Measurable—Goals should be measurable and their attainment evidenced in some tangible way.

Achievable—Goals should be achievable given the circumstances and resources at hand.

Results‐focused—Goals should measure outcomes not activities.

Time‐related—Goals should be linked to a specific timeframe.

Process for Goal Development

1. Identify the district goal/priority/indicator/student performance data the administrator’s goal is intended to support

2. Ask the administrator:

a. What will we see next year toward the accomplishment of this that we don’t see now?

b. What measure will we use to know that the difference represents meaningful progress?

3. Allow administrator time to craft a response

4. Once agreed upon, administrator develops SMART goal statements

Appendix E – Evidence

Validity, reliability and efficacy of the VBISD Administrator Evaluation Tool relies upon evidence to score administrator performance.

• Artifacts to serve as evidence of administrator performance should be identified at the beginning of the evaluation cycle and mutually agreed upon by the parties.

• Artifacts should be limited to only what is needed to inform scoring administrator performance. Excessive artifacts cloud the evaluation process and waste precious

time and resources.

• Parties should establish when artifacts are to be provided, i.e., as they originate, at designated checkpoints, during self‐evaluation, etc.

A list of possible artifacts that may be used as evidence is provided at the end of each professional practice domain rubric. See the appendixes of this document for additional artifacts that may serve as evidence of performance.

Appendix G – Contingencies

If an administrator receives a rating of minimally effective or ineffective, the superintendent/supervisor must develop and require the administrator to implement an improvement plan to correct the deficiencies. The improvement plan must recommend professional development opportunities and other actions designed to improve the rating of the administrator on his/her next annual evaluation. See the appendixes of this document for more information on developing an Individual Development Plan for the administrator. If an administrator receives a rating of highly effective on three consecutive annual evaluations, the superintendent/supervisor may choose to conduct an evaluation biennially instead of annually. However, if an administrator is not rated as highly effective on one of these biennial evaluations, the administrator must again be evaluated annually.

Appendix H – Student Growth

For all administrators, the evaluation system has to take into account multiple measures of student growth and assessment data. For administrators who are regularly involved in instructional matters—and this includes all but the most exceptional situations—the following specific expectations must be met with regards to student growth:

25% of the annual evaluation shall be based on student growth and assessment data for years 2015‐2016, 2016‐2017 and 2017‐2018

40% of the annual evaluation shall be based on student growth and assessment data beginning in 2018‐2019

Student growth and assessment data used for administrator evaluation must be the combined student growth and assessment data used in teacher annual year‐end evaluations for the entire district.

Student Growth versus Student Achievement

Student growth and student achievement are not the same measurement. Student achievement is a single measurement of student performance while student growth measures the amount of students' academic progress between two points in time.

1

Student Achievement Example: A student could score 350 on a math assessment.

Student Growth Example: A student could show a 50‐point growth by improving his/her math score from 300 last year in the fourth grade to 350 on this year's fifth grade exam.

It’s important to note that, in order to measure student growth, the data considered must be from a single group of students, i.e., this year’s fourth graders and next year’s fifth graders.

What is a Student Growth Model?

School districts should establish a student growth model to be used in educator and administrator evaluations. A growth model is a collection of definitions, calculations or rules that summarizes student performance over two or more time points and supports interpretations about students, their classrooms, their educators or their schools.

2

Michigan law requires that multiple research‐based growth measures be used in student growth models that are used for evaluation purposes. This may include state assessments, alternative assessments, student learning objectives, nationally normed or locally adopted assessments that are aligned to state standards or based on individualized program goals. (Note: Beginning in 2018‐2019, in grades and subjects in which state assessments are administered, 50% of student growth in core areas must be based on state assessments.)

2016 VBISD Administrator Evaluation Tool 10 | P a g e

Michigan law also requires that the most recent three consecutive years of student growth data be used for evaluation. If three years of data are not available, available data should be used.

Appendix I – Developing an Individual Development Plan for the Administrator

Individual Development Plans are an excellent way of helping employees develop their skills. Boards of education should encourage superintendents to develop an IDP in order to foster professional development.

In the event that an administrator receives a rating that is less than effective, the law requires the creation of an IDP. The following process is a framework for creating and implementing an IDP for the administrator:

• During the evaluation conference, the superintendent/supervisor provides clear feedback to the administrator in the domain(s) in which he/she received a less

than effective rating.

• The superintendent/supervisor drafts an IDP and presents it to the staff member for feedback and approval. The IDP outlines clear growth objectives, as

well as the training and development activities in which the administrator will engage to accomplish objectives. The superintendent/supervisor reviews,

provides feedback and approves the IDP.

• The superintendent/supervisor meets quarterly with the administrator to monitor and discuss progress.

• The administrator reports progress on his/her IDP with his/her self‐evaluation prior to the formal annual evaluation.

Appendix J – Training

VBISD provides training on its 2016 Administrator Evaluation Tool to supervisor/staff members via a cadre of certified trainers. Training is as follows:

Fundamentals of Evaluation: This training covers the fundamentals of evaluation including legal requirements, essential elements of a performance evaluation system and processes for establishing administrator performance goals and expectations.

Instrument‐Specific Training: This training covers the use of the VBISD 2016 Administrator Evaluation Tool including the cycle and processes of evaluation, rating administrator performance on the rubric, as well as the use of evidence to evaluate administrator performance. This training fulfills the requirement of evaluator training for staff members as well as evaluatee training for administrators whose districts are evaluating their administrator with the VBISD 2016 Superintendent Evaluation Tool. It is conducted on‐location in districts with superintendent/supervisor/administrator present.
