12. Teacher Status – First Status For all teachers and principals the first status (for a cohort) for Standard 6 or Standard 8 will be generated from the best two out of three valid Standard 6 or 8 ratings. School-level growth that has been assigned to a teacher as a result of a waiver (from NCFEs or ASW) will function as a valid Standard 6 rating. School-level growth that has been assigned as a result of a lack of data for a teacher (i.e., not from a waiver) will not count as a valid Standard 6 rating.

13. Status Scenarios 666 1.0 Met Expected Growth -2.5 Did not meet Expected Growth 1.2 Met Expected Growth Rating from 2012-13 Rating from 2013-14 Rating from 2014-15 Teacher has individual-level data for three years. Standard 6 from the 2013-14 school year is the lowest of the three ratings. Teacher’s Standard 6 status is 1.1 – “Meets Expected Growth”.

14. Status Scenarios 666 1.0 Met Expected Growth -2.5 Did not meet Expected Growth 1.2 Met Expected Growth Rating from 2012-13 Rating from 2013-14 Rating from 2014-15 Teacher has individual-level data for the first two years. The 2014-15 data is school- level growth from a waiver. Standard 6 from the 2013-14 school year is the lowest of the three ratings. Teacher’s Standard 6 status is 1.1 – “Meets Expected Growth”.

15. Status Scenarios 666 1.0 Met Expected Growth -2.5 Did not meet Expected Growth 1.2 Met Expected Growth Rating from 2012-13 Rating from 2013-14 Rating from 2014-15 Teacher has individual-level data for the final two years. The 2012-13 data is school- level growth because teacher did not have individual-level data. The teacher does not receive a status in the fall of 2015 because teacher does not have 3 years of valid data. First status in Fall 2016 (provided teacher has valid data in SY 2015-16).

16. Status Scenarios – Second Year 666 1.0 Met Expected Growth -2.5 Did not meet Expected Growth 1.2 Met Expected Growth Rating from 2012-13 Rating from 2013-14 Rating from 2014-15 6 4.0 Exceeded Expected Growth Rating from 2015-16 Teacher receives second status in fall of 2016. Rating from 2012- 13 “rolls off”. Rating from 2013- 14 returns to the rolling average (even though it was dropped from prior year’s calculation). Teacher’s status is “Meets Expected Growth” with an average of 0.9.
