Rubric Structure and Rating Level Focus
The focus of the Basic rating level is the educator whose performance does
not meet state performance standards
and who is not achieving at expected levels.
The focus of Partially Proficient and Proficient levels is what educators do on
a day-to-day basis to achieve state performance standards and assure that
students are achieving at expected levels.
The focus of Accomplished and Exemplary ratings shifts to the outcomes of the
educator’s practices, including expectations for staff, students, parents and community
members, as a result of practices exhibited under rating levels 2 and 3.
