Annual professional performance reviews shall differentiate teacher effectiveness using a composite effectiveness rating. Based on the teacher’s composite effectiveness score a classroom teacher shall be rated as either: Highly Effective (H) Effective (E) Developing (D) Ineffective (I) The composite effectiveness rating shall be comprised of two (2) components: Student Performance Principal Observation Each Teacher’s final rating is based on a matrix that takes into consideration the HEDI rating for each teacher on both categories above. The matrix is as follows: Student Performance Highly Effective (H) H H E D Effective (E) H E E D Developing (D) E E D I Ineffective (I) D D I I During the 2016-2017 through 2018-2019 school years for the required subcomponent of the Student Performance Category: For teachers and principals who receive a State provided growth score (i.e., grades 4-8 ELA and math teachers and principals of buildings that include grades 4-8 or all of grades 9-12), the growth score shall be excluded from the scores and ratings used to calculate the transition score and rating.

Provided, however, that alternate SLO’s must continue to be developed in instances where there are no remaining student performance measures for purposes of calculating transition scores and ratings. For teachers and principals who do not receive their own State-provided growth scores (e.g., grade 3ELA and math teachers, 6-8 science and social studies teachers, principals of K-2 buildings, etc.), the results of the grades 3-8 ELA and math State assessments and any State-provided growth scores must be excluded when calculating the transition score and rating. If a measure is based only in part on the grades 3-8 ELA/math State assessments or State-provided growth scores (e.g., an SLO based on a group measure using results from the 3-8 ELA State assessments and results from Regents assessments, districts/BOCES must determine whether to use the measure with the remaining assessments.
