Slide 2 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS 2013-14 Teacher Effectiveness Evaluation Calculating The Overall Rating Office of Achievement and Accountability June 4, 2014 1 Slide 3 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS 2013-14 Teacher Evaluation Update Given the transition in state assessments, recent legislation (i.e. former Senate Bill 676) prohibits the use of state assessments for teacher and principal evaluation until 2016-17. City Schools will not use student growth measures in the 2013-14 teacher evaluation that will be used for compensation because all of the measures we planned to use include state assessment data. Teachers will experience the full evaluation (i.e. professional practice and student growth measures) through the use of a formative report for developmental purposes. 2 Slide 4 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS 2013-14 Teacher Effectiveness Evaluation* 3 *For 2013-14, the teacher annual evaluation used for compensation includes professional practice measures with all evaluation measures (professional practice & student growth) being provided for formative purposes. Slide 5 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS Calculating the Scoring Ranges (Cut Scores) As an example, to set the Highly Effective scoring range you would start with 3.5 because 3.5 rounds up to 4, which is the highest score available using the Instructional Framework rubric. Then you would multiply by 25 to put the score on a 100-point scale. Then you would multiply by.85 to assign the weight of 85% for classroom observations. Step 1: 3.5 x 25 = 87.5 Step 2: 87.5 x.85 = 74.375 4 Slide 6 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS Revised 2013-14 Teacher Effectiveness Evaluation Model Then you would select the lowest score that would yield a Highly Effective rating on the Professional Expectations Measure (80 points) Multiply by.15 to assign the weight of 15% for professional expectations. Step 4: 80 *.15 = 12 Add it to the classroom observations number to get the starting value for the Highly Effective range. Step 5: 74.375 + 12 = 86.375 We would round down to 86 to set the starting value for Highly Effective 5 Professional Expectations RatingScore Range Highly Effective80 - 100 points Effective60 79 points Developing45 59 points IneffectiveLess than 45 points Slide 7 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS 2013-14 Teacher Effectiveness Evaluation Score Ranges (Cut Scores) 1 The score ranges for the classroom observations are based on the following rounded values: 4.0 for Highly Effective, 3.0 for Effective, 2.0 for Developing and 1.0 for Ineffective.

Slide 14 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS Evaluation Outcomes 13 The new evaluation includes 4 overall performance ratings instead of 3: Composite evaluation ratings will still be used to determine achievement units.

The composite evaluation rating, as well as the ratings on any of the measures, will be used to determine professional development opportunities for teachers to target strengths and weaknesses. Performance improvement plans can still be written based on the composite evaluation rating, any single evaluation component, or for any reason. They do not have a direct impact on compensation. 14 Slide 16 B ALTIMORE C ITY P UBLIC S CHOOLS THANK YOU 15 CONTACT US: EFFECTIVENESS@BCPS.K12.MD.US EFFECTIVENESS@BCPS.K12.MD.US CONTACT US: EFFECTIVENESS@BCPS.K12.MD.US EFFECTIVENESS@BCPS.K12.MD.US
