2. EVALUATIONS Evaluations are regulated and required by KDE (KAR’s and KRS’s) All Certified staff are held accountable to job specific domains and standards. The Process Starts with the PGP. The most important part of the evaluation plan- often overlooked

3. Evaluation Systems Six (6) Classifications for Certified Evaluations

4. OPGES (Other Professional Growth & Effectiveness System) Four (6) Components 1. Domain 1 (Planning & Preparation) 2. Domain 2 (Environment) 3. Domain 3 (Delivery of Service/Instruction) 4.Domain 4 ( Professional Responsibilities) 5. Student Growth/Impact Goals 6. Student Voice (where applicable)

5. Overall Rating Two (2) variables will be combined to receive an overall rating. 1.) Professional Practice 2.) Student Growth/Impact Goal

6. Professional Practice Domains 1-4 Domains 1-4 is considered professional practice and can be all work throughout the year and summative cycle. Evidence can be from a variety of sources on the next page (see page 34 in CEP).

7. Observation/Worksite Model Formative Phase- Data Collection from observations/worksite visits 1. Pre-conference- are not required, but can be conducted if the evaluator feels it to be beneficial. 2. Observations/Worksite Visit- 2 minis, 1 full, and 1 peer 3. Post- Conferences- Must be conducted face-to face 4. 1 year cycle or 3 year cycle 5. Expect principals to make unscheduled visits to collect formative data. 6. Principals may use any source of evidence collected throughout the evaluation cycle. See page 27-28

8. Sources of Evidence for “Professional Practice” Sources of evidence that can be used to support educator practice  Observations/site visit conducted by certified supervisor observer(s)  Program Review evidence  team-developed curriculum units  lesson plans  communication logs  timely, targeted feedback from mini or informal observations  student data records  student work  student formative and/or summative course evaluations/feedback  minutes from PLCs  teacher reflections and/or self-reflections  teacher interviews  teacher committee or team contributions  parent engagement surveys  records of student and/or teacher attendance  video lessons  engagement in professional organizations  action research  walkthrough observation data (at least 4 different data points)  Any other evidence the principal has collected during the evaluation cycle

CRITERIA FOR DETERMINING OTHER PROFESSIONAL’S “PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE RATING ” IF…THEN… Two Domains are rated ACCOMPLISHED and two Domains are rated EXEMPLARY Professional Practice Rating shall be Exemplary Two Domains are rated DEVELOPING and two Domains are rated EXEMPLARY Professional Practice Rating shall be Accomplished Two Domains are rated DEVELOPING and two Domains are rated ACCOMPLISHED Professional Practice Rating shall be Accomplished Domains 1 OR 4 are rated INEFFECTIVEProfessional Practice Rating shall NOT be Exemplary Domains 2 OR 3 are rated INEFFECTIVE Professional Practice Rating shall be Developing or Ineffective Domains 2 and 3 are rated INEFFECTIVEProfessional Practice Rating shall be Ineffective

11. Student Growth Goals One Student Growth/Impact Goal Local Growth/Impact Goal- Every certified employee that is evaluated in the OPGES System

12. Student Growth/Impact Goals Student Growth/Impact Goals are measured using one component: Growth

13. Determining Student Growth Student Growth Target Rating LowExpectedHigh Below 70%70%-85%86-100%

14. Numerical Value Student Growth RatingNumerical Point Value Low1 point Expected2 points High3 points

15. Multiple Years of Data The resulting weighted points are then added together to determine the total numerical score. This score will determine the overall student growth rating for the summative cycle as follows. Average Overall Student Growth Rating for Multiple Years Summative Cycle Overall Student Growth Rating Numerical Score Low1.0 - 1.49 Expected1.50 - 2.49 High2.50 - 3.0 2 years of dataWeight3 years of dataWeight Current Year50%Current Year50% Prior year50%Prior year25% Prior year25%

19. OPGES Yearly Evaluation Process--Bourbon County Schools Timeline Action First 30 calendar days Evaluation Criteria and process used to evaluate shall be explained and opportunity to ask question. By First 60 work days New teachers and other professionals to the district will have reflected on the components of the four domains within the TPGES/OPGES. The evaluatee will develop and submit his/her Professional Growth Plan (PGP) using the district approved template to the principal or designee. By First 60 work days Student Growth Goals SGG- Teachers review data to establish a baseline to develop SGG and submitted to the principal or designee. Fall semester Mini observations with Post conferences (pre-conferences are not required, but can be conducted if the supervisor finds it beneficial. Post-conferences must be face-to-face) Mid-Year Review Review progress/reflections on growth and modify plan as appropriate Spring Semester Continued implementation and ongoing self-reflection Mini and Full Observations with Post conferences Student Voice Survey – completed by the end of the established window By April 15 SGG- Student growth goals will be presented and discussed Summative reflection and Evaluation- summative evaluation submitted for official personnel record, copy provided to employee who may include written response Prior to the end of closing day All certified teachers and Other Professionals will complete the self-reflection and professional growth planning and submit it to the principal or designee.

20. Mid-Year Review Every OPGES participant will have to do a mid-year review to see the progress on the student growth goal and the PGP. We have questions for mid-year review that are on our district website. This can be completed from the on-line forms, save, & then uploaded for the principal to view.
