Educator Evaluation
History of the New Educator Evaluation System At the close of the 2012 Legislative Session, West Virginia Governor Earl Ray Tomblin approved House Bill 4236 requiring the implementation of a statewide teacher evaluation system that includes student learning as an indicator among extensive measures of educator performance. The legislation, which the Governor requested during his State of the State address, was approved by overwhelming majorities in both chambers of the West Virginia legislature. The bill specifies schoolwide student learning growth, as measured by summative assessment data, be employed as an evaluative measure. The new law requires that the West Virginia Board of Education establish policies to ensure the comprehensive teacher evaluation system, based on the revised system piloted in 25 West Virginia schools, be fully implemented in all 55 West Virginia counties beginning school year 2013-2014. The West Virginia Department of Education, in cooperation with the Center for Professional Development, is implementing a statewide scale up of the educator evaluation system with two schools from each of the 55 counties participating as demonstration sites in the current evaluation pilot cycle. |
