Teacher Evaluation 2015-2016

MOSL and MOTP Selection 

I found a better MIddle School MOSL selection guide HERE and a better High School selection guide HERE

Here's the cliff notes on how teacher evaluations currently work:

• 40% of your overall evaluation is based on tests (MOSLs).  Half of this rating is selected by the state (or me as the agent of the state, and half is selected by you (typically a MOSL committee, but for this year, I'm going to make suggestions and if you do NOT want that MOSL, then let me know and we can sit down and discuss)
• 60% of your overall evaluation is based on classroom observation (MOTP).  Your options are HERE

Here's the rule on MOSLs

• You can only be judged by the same assessment for both state and local measure if the population is different.  For example, you elect to have the ELA Regent for both measures if on one hand you choose "School" and on the other you choose "Individual/Grade/Lowest 3rd". Otherwise, you must have different assessments
• If you teach a course that terminates in a NYS exam, you will be evaluated by the exam.

Here's who will be your primary evaluator this year:

Colleen- All ELA + Language teachers (Except Tenuring Teachers who will be observed by Kiri).  Kiri & Val will be visiting all ELA & Language teachers in November and December to cover for Colleen while on maternity leave.

Val- All ISS, Social Studies, PE, and Art teachers. (Except Tenuring Teachers who will be observed by Kiri)

Kiri- All Math & Science teachers plus ALL tenuring teachers

Kiri's Suggested MOSLs

Here are my suggested MOSL selections.  The state MOSLs are locked in.  If you do not want your LOCAL measure, email me immediately and let me know what you would like instead.
