Agenda Item Summary:
|
|
During the 2023-2024 school year, the Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) evaluation handbooks have been revised for teachers, administrators, and support staff. The teacher, administrator, and support staff evaluation systems were revised to enhance accountability in alignment with Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) updates, National Education Association (NEA) Education Support Professionals Growth Continuum, improve student outcomes and foster professional growth. These revisions aim to more accurately reflect the contributions and performance of school personnel, ensuring evaluations are equitable. |

|
Background:
|
|
The teacher, principal, and support staff evaluation systems have been updated to align with VDOE standards. The Administrator Evaluation Handbook was last updated on June 20, 2013. The Support Staff Evaluation was last updated on January 25, 2017, and the Teacher Evaluation System was last updated in December 2020. During each revision process updates were conducted to better align with ACPS expectations along VDOE Standards that were relevant at the time. |
