Teacher SLTs2015-2016

General Format for Teacher SLTswith a District-wide Common Assessment

The percent of students scoring proficient1 in my 8th grade math classes2 on the appropriate grade-level District-wide End of Year math assessment3 will be at the District Average (DAVG)4. 1however proficient is defined: Basic or above, Good or Excellent, 80% or higher, etc.)2 grade and subject you teach3 whatever District-wide End of Year test is given for the grade and subject. See district chart for tentative list of assessments. This may change based on availability. 4 this will be determined at the end of the year – there will be variance by grade of school – see upcoming slide.

** This example is for a C School

Goal Differentiation Based on School Letter Grade

School letter grade: Goal would be…

A Schools 20% higher than the district average*

B Schools 10% higher than the district average**

C Schools District Average

D Schools 10% lower than the district average

* A schools will need to reach 100% proficient for the top range of Exceeding Expectations.**When the district average is greater than 70%, the top ranges will split the difference between that number and 100.

Ratings• Charts based on the district average and school letter

grade will be provided at the end of the year for purposes of scoring. • This method allows us to use actual results and not

base scoring on previous year’s results.

Calculator can be used at mid-year to monitor progress and get a number of students needed for each range.

Progress Monitoring

• When available, a district average of proficient will be provided to schools. This will allow teachers to monitor their current status in relation to the district average. • After each Scantron Benchmark Test (K-12 ELA and

math), there are reports available to the teacher where they can see the average score for their class, the school, and the district.

SLT Example without a District wide test or District Average available

The percent of students scoring proficient1 in my 8th grade Physical Education class2 on the end of year assessment3 will be 80%4.

80% of the students in my physical education class will score proficient on the end of the year assessment. 1however proficient is defined: Basic or above, Good or Excellent, 80% or higher, etc.)2 grade and subject you teach3 Whatever end of year assessment is appropriate for the class. If there is a national, state college, certification or district test available, that test should be used. 4 General definition of proficiency. This may vary based on school letter grade, historical data, and baseline data.

** This example is for a C School

Below Proficient Goal30% of students in my 8th grade math classes1 who scored below proficient2 on the previous year's District-wide End of Year math assessment will improve at least one performance level3 on the District-wide End of Year assessment.

1 The common grade and subject class that you teach. It should include all of the same classes that you teach. 2 However proficient is defined (Basic or above, Good and Excellent).3 For example, from Approaching Basic to Basic, Unsatisfactory to Approaching Basic.

Sample K-8 Below Proficient Goal

30% of students in my 3rd grade math class1 who scored below proficient2 on the previous year's district mathematics benchmark test will improve at least one performance level3 on the 3rd grade mathematics End of Year District Benchmark Test.

1 The common grade and subject class that you teach. It should include all of the same classes that you teach. 2 However proficient is defined (Basic or above, Good and Excellent).3 For example, from U to AB, AB to B.

Sample 9-12 Below Proficient Goal

30% of students in my English II class1 who scored below proficient2 on the previous year's English I End of Year benchmark test will improve at least one performance level3 on the English II EOC.

1 The common grade and subject class that you teach. It should include all of the same classes that you teach. 2 However proficient is defined (Good and Excellent).3 For example, from Poor to Fair, Fair to Good

Sample Below Proficient Goal

30% of the 11th graders in my English III class1 who scored below an 18 2 on the previous year's English portion of the Plan test will score and 18 or higher3 on the English portion of the Spring 2015 ACT taken by 11th graders .

Suggested Scale for other non-tested grades and subjects

Percent of students who score “proficient”• D or F schools: 70%• C schools: 80%• B schools: 90%• A schools: 100%

*based on the idea that A schools are expected to have 100% of their students proficient. Adjustments can be made based on academic and non-academic courses and baseline data. When there are no proficiency levels assigned, proficient will be defined as 80% or higher.
