1. New Teacher Induction

2. Walton County School District Teacher Evaluation System

3. Summative Evaluation Measurements
3 Components:
Administrative Evaluation (Instructional Practice)
Deliberate Practice
Student Proficiency Measure
Each component counts as 1/3 of the summative Evaluation Measurement

4. Administrative Evaluation
Instructional Practice

5. Teacher Evaluation System
WCSD Evaluation System developed from Copeland model
Based on research from:
John Hattie
Charlotte Danielson
Robert Marzano
FEAPs

6. Administrative Evaluation
Based on 4 domains:
Domain 1: Planning/Preparation
Domain 2: Classroom Management
Domain 3: Direct Instruction
Domain 4: Professional Responsibilities
Domain 2 and 3 must be observed
FEAPs Aligned (see crosswalk)

7. Teacher Observations
First year teachers and teachers new to Walton County must receive two formal evaluations per year
Teachers who have been with Walton County for more than one year must receive only one formal evaluation
Each evaluation must include at least one formal observation.
Must be at least 30 minutes in length
Must be scheduled 48 hours in advance

8. Lesson Walkthroughs
Administrators may conduct informal walkthroughs at anytime during the year.
Walkthroughs:
Are for the purpose of providing instructional feedback
Will only review domains 2 and 3
Do not require prior notice
May last for any length of time

9. Final Evaluation Ratings
The WCSD Teacher Evaluation System is holistic
Administrators will consider all evidence collected throughout the year before determining the final rating of each indicator.
Teachers should collect artifacts throughout the year to show proof of proficiency in domains 1 and 4.
Administrators will review previous walkthrough data to determine ratings in domains 2 and 3.
The ratings in each domain will determine the final evaluation rating and score.

10. Final Evaluation Rating
Unsatisfactory: 0 – 55
Needs Improvement: 56 – 113
Effective: 114 – 140
Highly Effective:

11. Deliberate Practice

12. DP Purpose
The DP was designed to allow teachers to have input into their evaluation.
DP goals are teacher created and Principal approved.
DP goals must be based on teaching responsibilities.
Administrators may require additional goals based on previous evaluation data

13. Setting Goals Teachers may choose up to 4 goals. Goals should be:
Specific
Measureable
Attainable
Realistic
Timely

14. SMART Goals
Goals will include the current level of performance, a SMART data driven target, and the practices that will change as a result of the new learning.
49% of my students scored on grade level on their th grade FSA math assessment. By May of 2017, 54% of my students will score on grade level on the Algebra I EOC. In order to assist students with performing on grade level, small group instruction will be implemented in order to provide differentiated instruction at least once weekly.

15. Professional Learning
Teachers will choose professional learning activities to assist them in meeting their goal(s).
The DP refers to these activities as progress points.
Completing progress points is essential to receiving a highly effective rating on the DP portion of the teacher evaluation.

16. DP Ratings Ratings are determined based on: Unsatisfactory: 0 – 55
Percentage of goals achieved
Percentage of professional learning activities completed (progress points)
100% of progress points must be completed to be highly effective
Unsatisfactory: 0 – 55
Needs Improvement: 56 – 113
Effective: 114 – 140
Highly Effective:

17. Student Performance Measure

18. What are student performance measures?
Florida Statute requires school districts to count student data as at least 1/3 of each teacher’s evaluation.
Performance measures can be broken down into:
State Measure – Calculated and produced by FLDOE
Local Measures – Calculated local by Walton County School District

19. State Measures FLDOE has adopted the Value Added Model (VAM)
VAM scores are produced for roughly 1/3 of our teaching population:
ELA/Reading courses in grades 4-10
Math courses in grades 4-8
Algebra I in grades 8 and 9
VAM Video

20. Local Measures Local Measures are based on:
STAR Enterprise Reading, Math and Early Literacy Assessments
Florida Alternative Assessment
FCAT 2.0 5th Grade Science
FCAT 2.0 8th Grade Science
Civics EOC
Biology EOC
US History EOC
Geometry EOC
Algebra II EOC
Algebra I EOC for grades other than 8 and 9

21. Local Measures
Each assessment used for a local measure is based on teaching assignment.

22. STAR
Taking the Test

23. STAR Progress Monitoring in Reading and Math
STAR is administered up to 4 times a year
Mandatory
August/September
January/February
April May
School-Based Decision
October/November

24. Progress Monitoring and Statute
Florida Statute requires one of three things for students showing deficiencies in reading and/or math:
A federally required student plan, such as an IEP
An individual progress monitoring plan
The student is monitored through a schoolwide system of progress monitoring
STAR allows us to satisfy the 3rd option
