Purpose of VAL-ED
• VAL-ED utilizes a multi-rater, evidence-based approach to measure the effectiveness of school leadership behaviors known to influence teacher performance and student learning.
• This instrument will provide supervisors with comprehensive, constructive feedback to equip principals to grow as instructional leaders.
• The results offer principals a detailed assessment of perceived performance based on the ISLLC standards using a 360 model that encompasses the entire professional school environment.
• VAL-ED also offers longitudinal reporting to measure progress over time.

Uses of VAL-ED• VAL-ED reports principal performance through:
– Norm-referenced scores – Criterion-reference scores– Longitudinal scores
• VAL-ED will be administered twice per year in order to:– Facilitate a data-based performance evaluation– Measure performance growth– Guide professional development

Group Response ComparisonsThe VAL-ED is a 360° Feedback Tool:
• Taken by the principal, the principal’s supervisor, all certified classroom teachers, and certified, non-classroom instructional staff
• Provides the best feedback to principals• All respondents assess the same facets of principal
leadership • VAL-ED reports allow principals to compare their ratings
against the ratings given by teachers and supervisors

Performance Level Descriptors• Distinguished
– A distinguished leader exhibits leadership behaviors of core components and key processes at levels of effectiveness that over time are virtually certain to influence teachers to bring the school to a point that results in strong value-added to student achievement and social learning for all students.
• Proficient– A proficient leader exhibits leadership behaviors of core components and key processes at
levels of effectiveness that over time are likely to influence teachers to bring the school to a point that results in acceptable value-added to student achievement and social learning for all students.
• Basic– A leader at the basic level of proficiency exhibits leadership behaviors of core components and
key processes at levels of effectiveness that over time are likely to influence teachers to bring the school to a point that results in acceptable value-added to student achievement and social learning for some sub-groups of students, but not all.
• Below basic– A leader at the below basic level of proficiency exhibits leadership behaviors of core
components and key processes at levels of effectiveness that over time are unlikely to influence teachers to bring the school to a point that results in acceptable value-added to student achievement and social learning for students.
