9 The SGG is congruent with KCAS and appropriate for the grade level and content area for which it was developed. The SGG represents or encompasses an enduring skill, process, understanding, or concept that students are expected to master by taking a particular course (or courses) in school. The SGG will allow high- and low-achieving students to adequately demonstrate their knowledge. The SGG provides access and opportunity for all students, including students with disabilities, ELLs, and gifted/talented students. Hand Out 1 Hand Out 1 DISTRICT CEP

13 Rigor (of the goal) Congruency to the standards Proficiency and growth components are defensible based on base-line data. Comparability (of the assessments) Agreement on what ‘meeting standards’ looks like when assessed Assessments are comparable in terms of the criteria used to determine progress toward attainment of the standard Hand Out 1 Hand Out 1 DISTRICT CEP

Using the 8 standards for mathematical practice, all of my 3 rd grade math students will develop their ability to understand multiplication and division conceptually over the course of the school year. All students will grow at least one level on the 3 rd grade critical area standards mastery rubric and 80% of students will reach proficiency (level 4 on the rubric). 14

Your Task: Analyze the baseline data on the handout and the SGG you just read to determine if the growth and proficiency components of the goal are appropriate for the current data. 15 Hand Out 2 Hand Out 2

Your Task: Use the Revised SGG, the sample district decision rules and district-designed matrix to make a determination for this teacher’s overall growth rating. (Reminder: These samples may or may not represent your district’s decision rules. The sample is designed to allow for an experience to apply data to a set of rules to determine an overall rating.) 19 Hand Out 3 Hand Out 3 DISTRICT CEP

25 If we are not using SGG as part of our evaluation system, then we do not need to do them. If you teach reading or math in grades 4-8, then you have to write 2 goals. All teachers will use the SGG process in Teachers only have to write one SGG. The Student Growth Percentile (SGP) is not a goal, it is a growth percentile that is calculated from state data. Districts decide how they want to incorporate this data into an overall Student Growth Rating.
