How will student growth data be a part of the evaluation process?

Student growth data should be used just as any other data collected during an evaluation – as information that will help to inform principals about their campus’s strengths and potential areas of improvement so they can better impact all students the following year. Student growth is one measure in a multiple measure evaluation system, and the inclusion of student growth data in a formative evaluation process provides for a more complete understanding of which students are being reached and how much students have progressed in a given year.
