The same expectations apply to districts using an evaluation system other than KEEP.

16. Matrix Used to Determine Summative Evaluation Rating Rules 1. Must meet all three student growth measures to be considered highly effective. 2. Must meet at least two student growth measures to be considered effective. 3. Can only be considered developing if meeting only one student growth measure 4. Can only be rated one performance level higher than the lowest summary rating. 5. When all summary ratings are the same, that rating becomes the performance level. Next Year 2014-2015

17. Multiple Measures and Significance Summary Teachers and Leaders evaluations include multiple measures as evidence Kansas is defining “significance” as demonstrating student growth using MORE than one measure Must consider state assessments May include assessment measures currently in use in your district Validity of the Measure must be pre- determined for any appropriate measure Locally determine credit/responsibility for student growth Time for student growth 1-4 years Next Year 2014-2015
