Student Growth Data. 10.4.1 Student growth data must be a substantial factor in evaluating the summative performance of certificated classroom teachers as directed, required and defined by the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction. As used in this subsection, “student growth” means the change in student achievement between two points in time.
Student Growth Data. Upon receipt of reports or other related information from the Michigan Department of Education on student growth data derived from performance on state assessments which assigns each student to the various teachers in a building, the Board will notify the building administrator to make all such reports available to the teaching staff as soon as possible. Each teacher will be provided adequate opportunity to review the data for accuracy of the roster of students listed prior to any use of the information by the district. Should a discrepancy be noted the teacher shall have the right to provide reasons for the exclusion of the student information as part of the student growth data used in the district. A student’s growth shall be measured by a change in academic achievement between two separate and distinct points in time. For the purpose of inclusion of student growth data, the effect of a teacher on student growth shall be calculated as the average student performance in a class unless otherwise defined in state law. Student growth data may be excluded for students in the district or building by the building principal or superintendent as allowed by law, if a student has not spent the entire year in the district or building, if a student’s attendance could have adversely impacted achievement and performance, if a student has been suspended or expelled from the district or building, or the student is judged to have behaved in a manner detrimental to the student’s achievement or performance. The building principal or superintendent may seek recommendations from teaching staff for these student exclusions from the district’s student growth data. Student growth data derived from performance on state assessments may be judged in the aggregate and applied to the entire teaching staff. Student growth data derived from performance on state assessments shall be one of multiple measures used to determine student growth. Other measures may include locally selected standardized tests and local teacher made assessments as agreed upon by both parties. The District and the Association will collaborate to establish a District Student Growth Committee. The Committee shall meet at least once each year to review the student growth data and, when appropriate, make recommendations for change to both parties. The District and Association will select no more than 3 representatives each to serve on the Committee.
Student Growth Data. A. Student growth data will be taken from multiple sources during the school year in which the evaluation is being conducted, and must be appropriate and relevant to the teacher’s assignment and may include formative and summative measures. It may include teacher initiated formal and/or informal assessments of student progress. Student achievement that is not calibrated to show growth between two points in time in the same school year shall not be used to calculate a teacher’s student growth score. School-wide or District-wide test scores may be used when evaluating classroom teachers if they are calibrated to show growth between two points in time within the same school year. The evaluator shall consult with the teacher to identify student growth and achievement data that are relevant to the teacher and subject matter that will be used in assessing the student growth components. The evaluator’s determination of proficiency rating level ratings must be based on multiple measures that may include classroom-based, school-based, district-based and state-based tools.
Student Growth Data. Section 11.7.17 Student growth data must be a substantial factor in evaluating the summative performance of certificated classroom teachers for at least three of the evaluation criteria as directed, required, and defined by the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Student Growth Data. The Governing Board and the Association shall collaboratively develop student growth measures to be utilized in the evaluation process. Student growth measures shall be determined not later than September 30 annually unless the district where the program is located requests the teacher to use the same student growth measure (“SGM”) the district is using. If this deadline is not met, the Parties’ negotiation teams shall meet to bargain to agreement the student growth measures no later than October 15 annually.
