The View from the States: A Brief on Non-Tested Grades and Subjects
Reform Support Network
In designing multiple-measure evaluation systems for teachers and principals, one of the key questions to emerge is: how to obtain student growth data for teachers of academic subjects and grades not covered by statewide assessments. Race to the Top grantees that began early to implement new evaluation systems are well on their way to incorporating new measures of student growth into the evaluation process. This brief profiles how three Race to the Top grantees--Delaware, North Carolina and Tennessee--have addressed this question. Leaders from the Delaware Department of Education (DDOE), the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) and the Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE) reported to their peers during a seminar on August 28, 2012 in Washington, DC, on how they have developed growth measures for teachers of non-tested grades and subjects. This brief, based on their presentations, offers a look at the paths each State is taking, but does not attempt a comprehensive overview of policy or practice, or an assessment of the quality of their initiatives.
