STUDENT GROWTH MEASURES
• Kansas requires:
• Include student growth as significant factor in evaluation of
classroom teachers and building leaders
• Multiple measures (>1) required (therefore, 2 or 3 selected
for each grade level or content area)
• State assessments are required to be 1 of the KEEP
SGMs for all grade levels and content areas that give them
• Multiple SGMs (>1) must be met by teacher or building
leader to allow effective or highly effective rating

“Multiple Measures” is an educational term used to look at various measures of student growth, in
addition to the state assessments.
STUDENT GROWTH MEASURES
What are any/all student growth measures
currently being used in your grade level or
subject area?
STUDENT GROWTH MEASURES
•
Select Growth Measures from current measures:
•
•
•
SGM documents growth attributable to the teacher or building
leader between two or more identified points in time
Commercially purchased assessments acceptable as SGM
Locally developed assessments acceptable as SGM:
•
•
•
Designed, reviewed and used across the district with strict
adherence to an inter-rater agreement
Created in consultation with school administration with
expertise in assessment, special education, ELL specialists
and content experts.
All grade levels across schools in a single district are advised
to use the same measures
•
Student Growth Objectives (SGOs) or Student Learning
Objectives (SLOs) are developed by collaborative districtwide team
STUDENT GROWTH MEASURES
• Select Growth Measures from current measures:
• All grade levels across schools in a single district are
advised to use the same measures
•
Student Growth Objectives (SGOs) or Student Learning
Objectives (SLOs) are developed by collaborative districtwide team
• Covers all key subject/grade level content standards
• Number of test items should correlate to distribution of time
spent teaching the content
• Require higher order thinking as appropriate
• Should allow high and low achieving students to
demonstrate knowledge
• Valid and reliable
STUDENT GROWTH MEASURES
• Online form on KSDE Evaluation Website – submit/update
SGMs for elementary, middle and high schools
• List of possible SGMs on KSDE Evaluation website
• Not endorsed or suggested, simply a repository of all being
used by districts as submitted to KSDE
MET / NOT MET
• Decisions on met / not met set scores or minimum levels
is made at the District Level.
THINKING ABOUT SGMS
• SGMs are things students do.
• Has the educator being evaluated had a chance to make
an impact on the SGM?
•
•
Building Leaders, Counselors, etc.. – make sure the
educator being evaluated has been a part of the process
in impacting SGMs being used (for example graduation
rates, etc.)
Secondary teachers – Helpful to use same SGMs for all in
same subject area, but only use SGMs that teacher had a
chance to impact. For example, teacher of senior level
English wouldn’t use State Assessments that were
completed before the teacher ever worked with the
students.
NOTING SGMS IN KEEP WEB
APP
• SGMs tab in KEEP cannot be filled out until all data is
ready to be completed.
• Evaluators – note the SGMs in the Beginning of Cycle
Conference Discussion Summary.
• Gives everyone a “heads up” about what’s coming later in
the Formal Evaluation Cycle process.
TEACHERS NOT IN FORMAL
EVALUATION CYCLE
• Gather data.
• Set aside artifacts and SGMs results in personal folders
and desktops.
• Allows teachers to demonstrate quality of teaching
beyond Aug – Feb 15th of Formal Evaluation Cycle year!
• This process not fully complete/information until 20172018 when multiple years of data has been accumulated.

RATINGS
THE MATRIX

effective or its equivalent for the SGM Rating.
• Must meet at least two student growth measures to be
considered effective or its equivalent for SGM Summary
rating.
• Must meet at least one SGMs to be considered developing
or its equivalent for the SGM Summary Rating.
• The Final Summative Rating can only be rated one
performance level higher than the lowest rating.
• When both Summary Ratings are the same, it becomes the
