Flow chart

TEACHER ISSUES

Teachers co-teach classes but have no common planning time◦ LEA Determination◦ Cannot assume planning only occurs together◦ Cannot account for every minute of planning◦ Is 50/50 a fair split?

Co-Teaching

Should special ed teachers be attributed to entire class at 50/50 or only attributed to special ed students?◦ Domains I & III responsibility – yes◦ Sp ed teachers can have regular ed students

attributed to them; regular ed teachers can have sp ed students attributed to them.

◦ Have conversation in advance◦ What is everyone doing?

Co-Teaching

When do LTS become accountable?◦ Define “accountable”

HQT?, Educator effectiveness, Act 82◦ Act 82 – temporary professional

employee/professional employee Check collective bargaining agreement

◦ PIMS – 70 day rule (Used by TIMS for work history) even if district has 90 day rule

Long Term Subs

70 day rule◦ Does not need to be consecutive ◦ Must be same role

Staff collection ◦ LTS that fill vacancies

Long Term Subs

1st quarter maternity leave◦ Still TOR◦ Have ¾ responsibility◦ Will sub get evaluated?◦ Depends on bargaining agreement

***Note – Teacher of record is for the entire course***

Long Term Subs

Fill-in for teacher on leave, no evaluation, does teacher on leave get full attribution?◦ Is LTS LT temporary employee?◦ Can repost students for <100% but not more.◦ Could also occur if student moves during the year

Long Term Subs

HR decides of they are a temporary professional employee

They will NOT get information if they do not have a school email address

What is everyone doing with LTS?

Long Term Subs

As long as a teacher has 3 years of data they will have a PVAAS score◦ Regardless of building, district or subject area

3 Year Guideline

At home – attribute to “tutor” Virtually in class – attribute to teacher Act 82 – Temporary professional

employee/professional employee Domains I & III – planning/preparation,

instruction There is a minimum “n” count – TBD by end

of October

Homebound Students

Staff Collection◦ Assign FTE percentages as in the past◦ Courses – could be teaching courses in multiple

LEAs◦ ID by LEA and course◦ 8th math in 3 buildings will give one score for

students in all buildings◦ Instructional relationship weight

# days concurrently enrolled If more than one teacher – how are you splitting

responsibility?

Multiple Buildings

Is it fully aligned to Keystones or does it meet each students’ specific needs?

If it is a supplemental course that covers all content then yes

LEAs determine which courses trigger students to take Keystones.

Think of final exam

Keystone Remediation Courses

No need to report non-Keystone course of student failed Alg I

Not a co-existing course Can schedule retake at any time Who offers remediation courses? Co-

existing courses?

Keystone Remediation Courses

Always around state testing? Close to test time

◦ Accurate attribution data Some LEAs check data before teachers

◦ Teacher rosters◦ All students there◦ Relieve stress on teachers

1 week window last year – more flexibility? Does anyone check before teachers?

Roster Verification Timeline

STUDENT ISSUES

Day 1 of the Algebra I course to the end of the testing window

Dates of Enrollment

Will there be a Special Ed Life Skills State Course Code for grades 3-5 for students who take the PASA?

IDK

PASA

How do you handle claiming different withdrawal and entry dates?◦ Look at everything through your lens◦ PVAAS will handle this

If a student leaves a district, waits one month to enroll in new district◦ Will be underclaimed◦ Again, worry about your data
