Performance Matters Name Change
The District's Evaluation Management System and Professional Learning Management System formerly known as Performance Matters is now referred to as TalentED. Our Evaluation and Professional Learning Management System is now owned by PowerSchools. We have seen several name changes of the past few years due to companies buying out each other. For consistency purpose we will as a district refer to the online resource as CORE-Eval and CORE-PD.
From a functional standpoint, nothing has changed other than the name.

Final Employee Evaluation Rating & Score
Updated: 9-24-16
Each employee's final evaluation is the result of the combining or averaging of the two main components of the employee's: professional practices and student growth (with each component being weighted for the final evaluation):
1. Employee professional practice rating
This rating is assessed with the Danielson framework as is applied via our Employee Appraisal Rubric through the observation/interaction process. The final appraisal scores are based on the last observation where a given component area was assessed.

The scale and rules for maintaining a given effectiveness rating are as follows: Updated: 11-2-17
|
Professional Practice Rating: |
Raw Score |
|
Highly Effective (4 points) No Unsatisfactory rating * |
94.5 - and above |
|
Effective (3 points) No Unsatisfactory rating * |
77.5 - 94.4 |
|
Needs Improvement / Developing (2 point) No Unsatisfactory rating * |
70.5 - 77.4 |
|
Unsatisfactory (1 points) 1 or more Unsatisfactory rating* |
0- 70.40 |
* If a teacher's final rating is rated Unsatisfactory in any component at the end of the school year, the overall evaluation preliminary rating will be Unsatisfactory.
Updated: 4-25-16 ** If a teacher's evaluator is a START CT, and the teacher has five (5) or more components' final rating at Needs Improvement / Developing, the START CT will make a recommendation to the START Review Board to determine if the teacher is to be offered an annual contract for the next school year.

3. Overall effectiveness rating Updated: 11-2-17
An educator's overall effectiveness rating is the average of the two parts of the evaluation: the professional practices and student learning growth portions. For each portion of the evaluation, the rating achieved corresponds to a number (4, 3, 2, 1) that is used to calculate the sum total of the two halves of the evaluation, to yield a final, summative rating, as shown below:

For example, an employee with a: Updated: 4-25-16
Highly Effective Employee Appraisal Framework Score (4 points), and an Highly Effective PDP Score, and an Effective Student Growth Score (3 points)
would be calculated as follows: (4*0.65) + (4*0.02) + (3*0.33) = 3.67 points for a summative rating of Highly Effective.
| Professional Practice 65% | PDP 2% | Student Growth 33% | Final Summative Rating 100% |
| 4 x 0.65 = 2.60 | 4 x 0.02 = 0.08 | 3 x 0.33 = 0.99 | 3.67 = Highly Effective |
