Evidence: First…
• 1. Assemble your district team to include teachers, administrators, association representatives
• 2. Research and select an instructional framework.
• 3. Professional development to understand framework & the alignment to each state criteria
• 4. Development of evaluation process, tools, forms (followed by process training)
NTPS Evidence Menu
• District TPEP Team: Work Sessions• Goals:
– Menu of Possibilities: Not a checklist, Not a Prescription, Enough to stimulate planning
– Format: Organize by state criteria with assigned framework components.
– Use framework proficiency levels to determine quality of evidence
NTPS Evidence Menu Sample• State Criterion 1: Centering instruction on high expectations for
student achievement • Operational Definition-EXPECTATIONS: The teacher communicates high
expectations for student learning • Component 2b: Establishing a Culture for Learning • Component 3a: Communicating with Students• Component 3c: Engaging Students in Learning • Evidence may include but is not limited to:

3aCommunicating with Students
Expectations for learning, directions and procedures, and explanations of content are unclear or confusing to students. The teacher’s use of language contains errors or is inappropriate for students’ cultures or levels of development.
Expectations for learning, directions and procedures, and explanations of content are clarified after initial confusion; the teacher’s use of language is correct but may not be completely appropriate for students’ cultures or levels of development.
Expectations for learning, directions and procedures, and explanations of content are clear to students. Communications are appropriate for students’ cultures and levels of development.
Expectations for learning, directions and procedures, and explanations of content are clear to students. The teacher’s oral and written communication is clear and expressive, appropriate for students’ cultures and levels of development, and anticipates possible student misconceptions.
NTPS Evidence Menu Sample• State Criterion 8: Exhibiting collaborative and collegial practices focused on
improving instructional practice and student learning • Operational Definition-PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE: The teacher participates
collaboratively in the educational community to improve instruction, advance the knowledge and practice of teaching as a profession, and ultimately impact student learning

evaluator)
First Observation Cycle
• Planning Conference • Formal Classroom Observation • Reflection Conference • Includes Goal Setting Discussion
Second Observation Cycle
• Planning Conference • Formal Classroom Observation • Reflection Conference • Preparation for Pre-Summative
Conference: Evidence Discussion
Second Observation Cycle
• Planning Conference • Formal Classroom Observation • Reflection Conference
Summative Scoring Process
• Teacher Self Assessment & Reflection • Pre-Summative Conference Preparation • Pre-Summative Conference • Final Summative Conference (optional)
Sample Observation Cycle Evidence
• See separate packet.

NTPS Summative Evaluation Standards
• Must score each of the eight (8) state criteria• Must have evidence in at least two components for each
criteria (Exception: Criteria #7 = Only one component - 4c)• For any criteria rated “1” (unsatisfactory) or “2” (basic),
evaluator must provide evidence-based narrative explanation on summary evaluation form.
• Final holistic summative score determined by evaluator using scores for eight criteria and summative rubric.
• No Surprises - Process designed to reveal all strengths and growth areas prior to final summative evaluation.
Sample Plan – Per TeacherMarch through April
• Staff Meeting – 1 hour (All)• Reflection Conference + Menu: 1 Hour• Prep for Pre-Summative: 30-60 Min.• Goals Rev./Pre-Summative Conf.: 1 hour• Prep final evaluation document: 45 Min.• Summative Conf.: (Optional) 30 Min.• Total: 4-5 hrs per teacher + staff mtg.
Pre-Summative Conference
• Before The Conference…• Teacher & Evaluator:
– Considers component evidence which may be used to inform the summative evaluation.
– Reflects on strengths and areas for further growth– Uses framework , crosswalk document, and summative
evaluation form to score each of the eight criteria along with a single summative score.
– “More” evidence is not necessarily “better”. Refer to framework in deciding what to bring to the conference.
Pre-Summative Conference• Conference Agenda:
– Compare/discuss preliminary criteria scores and summative score prepared by teacher and evaluator along with related evidence
– For any differences in preliminary scores, component evidence is reviewed to seek mutual agreement. (If no agreement can be reached, teacher may submit new evidence for evaluator consideration.)
– Identify any new evidence necessary to complete evaluation and determine who will gather/provide this.
– Review Summative Evaluation Document Plan & Optional Final Conference

Summative Rating Process Overview
• Summative Rating is determined through a “Raw Score” Model
• Determination of overall criterion score based on both:– Instructional framework rubrics– Student growth rubrics
The RAW Score ModelTeaching Criteria* Indicate Criterion embedded with student growth rubrics
Overall Criterion Scores
Criterion 1: Centering instruction on high expectations for student achievement 3
Criterion 2: Demonstrating effective teaching practices 4
*Criterion 3: Recognizing individual student learning needs and developing strategies to address those needs 3
Criterion 4: Providing clear and intentional focus on subject matter content and curriculum 2
Criterion 5: Fostering and managing a safe, positive learning environment 3
*Criterion 6: Using multiple student data elements to modify instruction and improve student learning 2
Criterion 7: Communicating and collaborating with parents and school community 3
*Criterion 8: Exhibiting collaborative and collegial practices focused on improving instructional practice and student learning 2
Total Summative Score 22
Evaluators place teachers into preliminary summative rating categories based on score bands. As illustrated above, this teacher would receive a preliminary overall summative rating of Proficient.

ESSB 5895 Establishes New Definitions Around Student Growth Measures
Both E2SSB 6696 and ESSB 5895 contain language around student growth including:• Student growth data that is relevant to the
teacher and subject matter must be a factor in the evaluation process and must be based on multiple measures that can include classroom-based, school-based, district-based, and state-based tools. Student growth means the change in student achievement between two points in time.
Changes…• 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.
• Student growth data elements may include the teacher’s performance as a member of a grade-level, subject matter, or other instructional team within a school when the use of this data is relevant and appropriate.
Defining Key Terms
• Student Achievement: The status of subject-matter knowledge, understandings, and skills at one point in time.
• Student Growth (Learning): The growth in subject-matter knowledge, understandings, and skill over time.
Student Growth Rubrics
• The TPEP steering committee organizations approved statewide rubrics for student growth to ensure consistency in implementation of the evaluation system across Washington State.
• The rubrics for student growth describe both goal-setting and outputs of student learning.
• OSPI has provided student growth rubrics for each of the three criterion – Teachers #3, #6, and #8– Principals #3, #5, and #8

*Must include a minimum of two student growth measures (i.e., state-, district-, school-, and classroom-based measures).
** A student growth score of “1” in any of the student growth rubrics will result in a Low growth rating.
Evaluators place teachers into summative rating categories based on score bands. As illustrated below, this teacher would receive a low student growth rating

NTPS Game Plan for Student Growth
• Gather representative team• Identify teaching assignment categories at elementary
and secondary• List appropriate student growth measures for each
assignment• Obtain or develop student growth measures as
needed for specialized assignments• Develop training tools, sample goals, and other
resources for teachers and principals• Development This Year; Implement FALL 2013.
NTPS Lessons Learned
• Quality, NOT Quantity• Collect, discuss, and record all year• Maximize conference discussions for teacher
and principal• Create evidence plan WITH each teacher –
Should NOT be prescribed without teacher input.
