An Alternative Method to Rate Teacher PerformanceNWEA
An Alternative Method to Rate Teacher Performance
Patricio A. Rojas, PH.D. Director of Research, Data & Assessment, Los Lunas, NM
Fusion 2012, the NWEA summer conference in Portland, Oregon
This session will provide participants the opportunity to experience an alternative method of rating teachers, under new regulations of New Mexico. This is an updated version of the work presented last year in FUSION 2011. The alternative method is needed because we do not have growth points in the year 2010-2011 in New Mexico.
Learning outcome:
- Learn easy graphs to analyze growth and how to rate teacher performance without using grown points.
Los Lunas is located 35 miles south from Albuquerque, the district has 9,000 students; 17 schools (3 high schools, 2 middle schools, and 12 elementary schools). The district is one of the few nationally accredited districts in the nation. We have been using MAP as short cycle assessment for the last six years. MAP scores are an important piece of data used to rate both schools and teachers.

This study evaluated the impact of the iStartSmart educational technology system on the language/literacy and math skills of preschool children compared to children without access to the system. Children using iStartSmart scored significantly higher on standardized tests of early literacy and math readiness at the end of the school year. Improvement was correlated with time spent using iStartSmart activities. The results suggest iStartSmart provides effective support for developing the core skills children need to be successful in school.

Legend
This legend explains terms used in the above chart that describe whether each student group met this year’s AYP goals.
For test indicators, AYP can be met in one of four ways: For the non-test attendance rate indicator, AYP can be met in one of three ways:
1) meeting the AYP targets with current year results; 1) meeting the AYP target with the current year results;
2) meeting the AYP targets with two-year combined results; 2) meeting the AYP target with two-year combined results;
3) meeting the improvement requirements of Safe Harbor; 3) making improvement over the previous year.
4) meeting the AYP targets with projected results.
* Attendance Rate is evaluated only for the All Students subgroup.
For the non-test graduation rate indicator, AYP can be met in one of two ways:
1) meeting the AYP target with the current year results;
2) making a 2 percentage point improvement over the previous year.
N/A Not applicable.
Not Required – This indicator was not evaluated for this subgroup because the subgroup size was smaller than the minimum number needed to achieve a statistically
NR reliable result. 30 students is the minimum size for the proficiency and non-test indicators, while 40 is the minimum size for the participation rate indicators.
Met This subgroup met AYP for this indicator with its current year, two-year combined, Safe Harbor, or growth measure results.
Not Met This subgroup did not meet AYP for this indicator.

Determining Your School’s Designation
Determining your school’s report card designation is a multi-step process. The first step is to determine a preliminary designation, which
is based on the following components: 1) the percentage of indicators met, 2) the Performance Index and 3) AYP determination.
Indicators Met Performance Index AYP Designation Preliminary Designation
94%-100% or 100 to 120 and Met or Not Met = Excellent or Effective
75%-93.9% or 90 to 99.9 and Met or Not Met = Effective or Continuous Improvement
0%-74.9% or 0 to 89.9 and Met = Continuous
50%-74.9% or 80 to 89.9 and Not Met = Improvement
31%-49.9% or 70 to 79.9 and Not Met = Academic Watch
0%-30.9% and 0 to 69.9 and Not Met = Academic Emergency
The preliminary designation results from identifying the Once the preliminary designation is determined, Value-Added,

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP),
often referred to as “The Nation’s Report Card,” is the only nationally representative and
continuing assessment that enables the comparison of performance in Ohio and other states
in various subject areas. Schools and students within each state are selected randomly to
be a part of the assessment. Not all students in the state or in a particular school take the
assessment. Data are reported at the state level only, and there are no individual student or
even school summary results. The assessments are conducted in mathematics, reading, science,
writing, the arts, civics, economics, geography and U.S. history.
To view Ohio’s most recent
NAEP results, go to:
