SGO Scoring ProcessTeam Actions1. Conduct End of Year Testing: Teachers and building leaders work together to administer end of year

assessments (MAP/DRA/SMI/Subject-specific/etc…)2. Prepare Data: Teacher, coaches, school leaders prepare data for analysis

Teacher Actions3. Self - Score SGO: Teacher scores their SGO4. Submit SGO: Teacher attaches Scored SGO and relevant data in Teachscape. Provides assessment used if not

Math/ELA

Lead Evaluator Actions5. Score SGO: Lead evaluator reviews data and SGO, inputs score into Teachscape

• If changing score – lead evaluator must document reason with evidence• If confirming score – lead evaluator can simply cite evidence provided

6. Inform Conversation: Use data to focus conversation on student outcomes

1. End of Year Assessments• K – 8 DRA Testing: should all be administered, completed, and scored by April 15.

Scores submitted to On-Course by April 30.• K – 1 enVisionMATH End of Year Test: should all be administered, completed, and

scored by Friday, May 23. • 2 – 5 SMI Testing: May be started as early as Monday April 14 and must be completed

by Friday, May 23. • 6 – 8 MAP Testing: May be started as early as Monday April 14 and must be completed

by Friday, May 23. • 9 – 12 MAP Testing: May be started as early as Monday April 28 and must be

completed by Friday, May 16. • All Others: Recommended that tests are administered and scored by May 15th where

possible.

2. Prepare Data for Scoring• Organize and Analyze: Once teacher has given assessment,

they will then need to prepare data in a way that is conducive to analysis and scoring of the SGO.• Math/ELA Teachers: For MAP/SMI/DRA these reports should come in a

standardized form. Math, Literacy, and Data Leaders will be prepped to help teachers prepare and interpret these reports.

• Other Subject Areas: For other subject areas, we will work with you and your staff to help put this data into a standardized and manageable format.

• Questions

Example: Leading Conversation about Growth

Question Response

How many (what percentage) of your students made the growth objective?

Why do you think these students made the objective? (Probe for strengths in understanding certain content, effective teaching strategies that were used, formative assessments that provided useful information, etc.)

Which students did not meet the growth objective?

What content did these students struggle with that prevented them from meeting the objective?

What teaching strategies could you use to help students understand this content in the future?

Example: Leading Conversation about Assessment

Question Response

• What Assessment(s) did you use to measure your student’s growth?

• What kind of information about your students did this assessment provide?

• Would you use this assessment as a measurement for SGOs in the future? If not, what would you use?
