MPES Overview
Rates school-level administrators on a 1-4 scale:
• Two schoolwide goals - state assessments in
language arts and mathematics (for CTE
directors, goals are set based on Year 1
students and Year 2 students)
• Two organizational goals - leading/lagging
indicators of school success (attendance,
truancy, discipline, AP/dual credit, etc.)
• Circle Survey or MDE-approved alternative

I. Summative Assessment Conference
Reminder - Supervisors must meet with MPES
participants after they have received end-ofyear student achievement data from the MDE.
7
I. Summative Assessment Conference, Cont.
Supervisors should meet with MPES participants
by August 31 to:
• Rate participants’ performance on their
student learning and organizational goals
(refer to the MPES goal-setting forms)
• Provide MPES participants with an MPES
Summative Assessment Score
8
I. Summative Assessment Conference, Cont.
Summative Assessment Scores consist of:
• ELA and Math goal ratings
• Organizational goal ratings
• Circle Survey results (or alternative tool used by
district)
Supervisors will rate an administrator’s
performance on each goal using Form 4 (available
in Canvas or on the MDE’s website), based on the
previously determined goal quantifications set in
Forms 2A-C.
9
II. Inputting Summative Assessment Scores
Supervisors of record (e.g., superintendent, the
superintendent’s designee, a head principal
evaluating an assistant principal, etc.) should
provide Form 4 data to the superintendent.
To report data to MDE, superintendents should
access the MPES file located in their MDE
SharePoint folder:
• Fastest, easiest way to report MPES data
• Same Excel file used to report teacher evaluation
data
10
II. Inputting Summative Assessment Scores, Cont.
Superintendents only should report finalized
MPES data to the MDE to ensure:

• Confidentiality
• His or her district’s compliance with federal
requirements

Important Notes:
1. MPES participants’ completed Form 4
documents should be printed/filed in their
central office’s personnel records.

upload Form 4 in Canvas. The MDE will
extract all necessary data directly from
SharePoint.

Now let’s take a look at the Excel file and then
address any questions you may have about
reporting data.
