Reporting Staff Evaluation Records Who needs to report Staff Evaluation data What data elements need to be reported Where do we get the data How do we report the data How do we verify the data submitted Who should have access to the Staff Evaluation data Issue #1 – Staff Evaluation Data

Any school district subject to the requirements of Education Law §3012-c for the school year for classroom teachers grades 4-8 ELA and math and their building principals must submit one State, one Local, one Other, and one composite effectiveness score and overall rating to NYSED for classroom teachers in ELA and math grades 4-8 and their building principals. If a public school district has a bargaining agreement which includes a negotiated §3012-c APPR for principals of schools housing grades 4-8 but not teachers (or vice versa), then those districts will also need to submit staff evaluation ratings and scores for the group of educators covered by that collective bargaining agreement.

SIG schools/districts and TIF schools/districts that are required to implement §3012-c for the school year for classroom teachers of grades and subjects other than 4-8 ELA and math and all of their building principals who have alternative subcomponent categories must submit, at a minimum, one Growth/Comparable measure (0-20) and one composite (0-100) score and overall rating (1-4) to NYSED for classroom teachers of grades and subjects other than 4-8 ELA and math and their building principals.
