HB 153 TEACHER EVALUATION AND STUDENT PERFORMANCE DATA

HB 153 TEACHER EVALUATION AND STUDENT PERFORMANCE DATACENTRAL OEA/NEA IPD [email protected] Bit of HistoryThe Governors Commission on Teaching Success was followed by the passage of Senate Bill 2 in 2004, which mandated the creation of the Educator Standards for the Teaching Profession, the Ohio Standards for Principals and the Ohio Standards for Professional Development.House Bill 1 in 2009 directed the Educator Standards Board to recommend model evaluation systems for teachers and principals to the State Board of Education for their review and adoption. House Bill 153 in 2011 set requirements for ODE in creating the OTES model. The OTES was created in response to this mandate and was designed to be used to assess the performance of Ohio Educators.

HB 153 Evaluation Framework RequirementsSec. 3319.112 (A) Not later than December 31, 2011, the state board of education shall develop a standards-based state framework for the evaluation of teachers. The framework shall establish an evaluation system that does the following:(1) Provides for multiple evaluation factors, including student academic growth which shall account for fifty per cent of each evaluation;(2) Is aligned with the standards for teachers adopted under section 3319.61 of the Revised Code;(3) Requires observation of the teacher being evaluated, including at least two formal observations by the evaluator of at least thirty minutes each and classroom walkthroughs;(4) Assigns a rating on each evaluation in accordance with division (B) of this section;(5) Requires each teacher to be provided with a written report of the results of the teacher's evaluation;(6) Identifies measures of student academic growth for grade levels and subjects for which the value-added progress dimension prescribed by section 3302.021 of the Revised Code does not apply;(7) Implements a classroom-level, value-added program developed by a nonprofit organization described in division (B) of section 3302.021 of the Revised Code;(8) Provides for professional development to accelerate and continue teacher growth and provide support to poorly performing teachers;(9) Provides for the allocation of financial resources to support professional development.(HB 153 as signed by the Governor)

HB 153 Local Requirements for Teacher EvaluationSec. 3319.111 [Effective 9/29/2011] Teacher evaluation(A) Not later than July 1, 2013, the board of education that of each school district, in consultation with teachers employed by the board, shall adopt a standards-based teacher evaluation policy that conforms with the framework for evaluation of teachers developed under section 3319.112 of the Revised Code. The policy shall become operative at the expiration of any collective bargaining agreement covering teachers employed by the board that is in effect on the effective date of this section and shall be included in any renewal or extension of such an agreement.(B) When using measures of student academic growth as a component of a teacher's evaluation, those measures shall include the value-added progress dimension prescribed by section 3302.021 of the Revised Code. For teachers of grade levels and subjects for which the value-added progress dimension is not applicable, the board shall administer assessments on the list developed under division (B)(2) of section 3319.112 of the Revised Code.(C)(1) The board shall conduct an evaluation of each teacher employed by the board at least once each school year, except as provided in divisions (C)(2) and (3) of this section. The evaluation shall be completed by the first day of April and the teacher shall receive a written report of the results of the evaluation by the tenth day of April.(2) If the board has entered into a limited contract or extended limited contract with the teacher pursuant to section 3319.11 of the Revised Code, the board shall evaluate the teacher at least twice in any school year in which the board may wish to declare its intention not to re-employ the teacher pursuant to division (B), (C)(3), (D), or (E) of that section.One evaluation shall be conducted and completed not later than the fifteenth day of January and the teacher being evaluated shall receive a written report of the results of this evaluation not later than the twenty-fifth day of January. One evaluation shall be conducted and completed between the tenth day of February and the first day of April and the teacher being evaluated shall receive a written report of the results of this evaluation not later than the tenth day of April.(3) The board may elect, by adoption of a resolution, to evaluate each teacher who received a rating of accomplished on the teacher's most recent evaluation conducted under this section once every two school years. In that case, the biennial evaluation shall be completed by the first day of April of the applicable school year, and the teacher shall receive a written report of the results of the evaluation by the tenth day of April of that school year.

HB 153 Opportunities and ChallengesOpportunitiesCreate evaluation systems that improve instructional. practice through formative feedback and educator reflection.Design a complete system of evaluation with formative feedback and support and not just a typical observation check list.Work together to identify best practices and scale them up through our locals.Bargain the process for changing the evaluation system as well as the procedures, practices and tools.Work collaboratively with administrators who are subject to the same requirements.

HB 153 Opportunities and ChallengesChallengesShort timeline to complete the work and operationalize the system (July 1, 2013).Unfunded mandate for non-RttT locals.Changing perceptions (ours and theirs) about the purpose of evaluation.Incorporating student growth in a way that benefits teachers and doesnt rank and sort them.Limited state support at the present time.Non-explicit requirement to create assessment systems to provide required student growth metric.Annual evaluations for all but accomplished teachers.

Evaluation Reform GuidelinesWe must begin with the belief that the main purpose of teacher evaluation is improved teaching practice and student learning.Teacher performance is to be measured through multiple sources of evidence, with observation as one source.Student performance is required to be 50% of the evaluation, BUT student performance is to be measured through multiple sources of data, not just a single standardized test score.The State Board of Education has adopted a framework; districts must still develop their evaluation system that includes processes, procedures and forms.

9

Evaluation 50% part 1Teacher PerformanceEach evaluation will consist of two formal observations of the teacher at least thirty minutes each in duration, as well as periodic classroom walkthroughs.Teacher performance metrics must also use multiple and variable sources of data, such as lesson plans, samples of student work, classroom assessment results, and portfolios, in addition to data from direct observation in classrooms.

Standard 1: StudentsTeachers understand student learning and development and respect the diversity of the students they teach.Teachers display knowledge of how students learn and of the developmental characteristics of age groups.

Teachers understand what students know and are able to do and use this knowledge to meet the needs of all students.

Teachers expect that all students will achieve to their full potential.

Teachers model respect for students diverse cultures, language skills and experiences.

Teachers recognize characteristics of gifted students, students with disabilities and at-risk students in order to assist in appropriate identification, instruction and intervention.

22

Standard 7 : Professional Responsibility and Growth Teachers assume responsibility for professional growth, performance and involvement as an individual and as a member of a learning community.

Teachers understand, uphold and follow professional ethics, policies and legal codes of professional conduct.

Teachers take responsibility for engaging in continuous, purposeful professional development.

Teachers are agents of change who seek opportunities to positively impact teaching quality, school improvements and student achievement.

Teacher Performance Evaluation Rubric The Teacher Performance Evaluation Rubric is intended to be scored holistically. This means that evaluators will assess which level provides the best overall description of the teacher. The scoring process is expected to occur upon completion of each thirty (30) minute observation and post-conference. The evaluator is to consider evidence gathered during the pre-observation conference, the observation, the post-observation conference, and classroom walkthroughs (if applicable). When completing the performance rubric, please note that evaluators are not expected to gather evidence on all indicators for each observation cycle. Likewise, teachers should not be required to submit additional pieces of evidence to address all indicators. The professionalism section of the rubric may use evidence collected during the pre-observation and post-observation conferences as well as information from the Professional Growth and/or Improvement Plan (if applicable).

Using Evidence to Inform Holistic Performance RatingsTeacher Evaluation as required by Amended Substitute House Bill Number 153 (HB 153) relies on two key evaluation components: a rating of Teacher Performance and a rating of student academic growth, each weighted at fifty percent of each evaluation. The following guidance speaks to the Teacher Performance rating component, utilizing the state model Teacher Performance Evaluation Rubric.The following is suggested step-by-step guidance for evaluators to review and analyze multiple data points that inform teacher performance ratings.

(See attached document for Teacher Performance Evaluation Rubric.)

Using Evidence to Inform Holistic Performance RatingsStep 1: Gather evidence

Step 2: Issue a holistic performance rating

Step 3: Issue the end-of-year performance rating

(See attached document for rating guidelines.)

Evaluation 50% part 2Student Growth MeasuresStudent academic growth will be measured through multiple measures which must include value-added scores on evaluations for teachers where value-added scores are available. Value-added scores are ONLY available for tested grades and subjects, math and reading in grades 38. Some extended reports are available in locals who participate in Battelle for Kids projects.Even if there are value-added scores, there must be additional student growth measures for all teachers.

Three Categories of Student Growth MeasuresDistricts will create a local student growth measure worth 50% of the evaluation from a combination of the following:Value-Added Data,ODE-approved Student Assessments,(See attached document for Vendor List or check the ODE website.)LEA developed measures following ODE guidelines.

VA Linkage Process Designed to ensure that teachers are accurately linked to the students they taught and the instruction they provided.

What is Linkage?Process of accurately linking students to teachers for the purpose of ensuring accuracy of value-added reports.Captures the instruction that each teacher provides over the course of a school year.Teachers verify the students and subjects that they taught.Teachers indicate the timeframe that they taught each student and whether any other teacher also provided instruction for a particular content area.

Developing a Student Assessment SystemUse the assessments you have first.Determine what assessments you need to create a rigorous, comparable and inclusive assessment system that is designed to provide student performance data to be used for educator professional growth and also for inclusion in an evaluation system.Chart a course of action with a timeline, persons responsible and deliverables.

Developing a Student Assessment SystemRequiring student performance in teacher evaluations means districts will need to:Map current school-based and district-wide assessments in all grades and subjects.Determine where assessment gaps exist.Create groups of educators to select/develop appropriate assessments for gaps.Create an assessment timeline for all grades and subjects.Collect, analyze and store student performance data.Provide time and training for educators to work together with student data to improve their own instruction.

Developing a Student Assessment System

SLOs A Student Learning Objective (SLO) process will be utilized for LEA-determined measures.

Student Learning Objectives (SLOs). SLOs are goals identified by a teacher or group of teachers that identify expected learning outcomes or growth targets for a group of students over a period of time. SLOs are determined by teachers after analyzing data on student academic performance and identifying areas that need a targeted effort for all students and subgroups of students. As a way to measure student growth, the objectives demonstrate a teachers impact on student learning within a given interval of instruction. Further, they enable teachers to use their own knowledge of appropriate student progress to make meaningful decisions about how their students learning is measured. As a collaborative process, SLOs also support teacher teams in their use of best practices.

Bargaining ConsiderationsWith a July 1, 2013 deadline for system completion, evaluation work will need to begin ASAP and may not fit into current bargaining cycle.Effective evaluation reform will require collaboration with administration at a very different level in many locals.Future evaluation language in CBAs will need to include all processes, procedures and tools.Stakes are high; we cant afford to adopt systems that arent designed to support teachers.

Bargaining ConsiderationsComposition and selection of evaluation team members.Timeline for evaluation work.Compensation for work outside of the school day.Mandatory training for evaluators for observation protocols and ratings. (mandated by HB153)Training for staff about evaluation processes, procedures and tools.No-fault piloting provision to work out problems.

Bargaining ConsiderationsProfessional Development on how to analyze student growth data.Time to analyze student growth data and time to plan instruction based on that data.Percentages for indicating Student Growth Measures.Which SGMs are to be used from the ODE approved list.Developing District SGMs based on ODE criteria.What is used as evidence of Educator Performance, i.e. professional portfolios, logs, charts, examples of student work, etc.What forms are to be used for observations and educator performance.

Bargaining ConsiderationsDue Process for helping under performing educators.Due Process for removal of educators.Define what constitutes a walk through.What is the definition of comparable evaluation for purpose of seniority and RIF.Choosing an evaluator.How many years of student growth data are used.

Next Steps for Transforming EvaluationIdentify and engage district evaluation team, including teachers from various levels/areas.Review and analyze teacher current evaluation polices and rules. Conduct ODE Evaluation GAP Analysis.Review effective evaluation models including the OTES.Select/Develop a district evaluation system and tools.Map and develop student assessments that will provide student performance data.Create training for evaluators and teachers.Construct a pilot timeline.Have volunteer teachers and evaluators pilot the system.Review and revise the system based on pilot data.Train all evaluators and teachers.Implement the new evaluation system.

Additional HB 153 RequirementsAt the local level, the board of education will include in its evaluation policy, procedures for using the evaluation results for retention and promotion decisions and for removal of poorly-performing teachers. Seniority will not be the basis for teacher retention decisions, except when deciding between teachers who have comparable evaluations.The local board of education will also provide for the allocation of financial resources to support professional development.
