Using these broad School Goals as a reference, teaching staff should use Danielson’s Framework for Effective Instruction to set their own Instructional Goal in collaboration with their administrator and, if applicable, their collegial group. The Instructional Goal should come from a Danielson Domain that corresponds with either ensuring curriculum and assessments are state compliant or ensuring programs and practices for interventions are in place.

Instructional Goal

Exploratory Goal

For the Exploratory Goal, you may choose from any of Danielson’s Domains that you wish to explore to enhance your teaching. Some ideas to consider may include “2d: Managing Student Behavior - Expectations” or “3c: Engaging Students in Learning - Student Groups”. You can choose to grow in an area either independently or with a collegial group.

How do I know if my goals fit the plan?

Three questions your principal will ask… 1. Does it meet the intent of the protocol? 2. Will meeting this goal make you a better teacher? 3. How will you know if you achieved your goal?

Student Growth Goal

In your Summative Year you will need to set a Student Growth Goal that will represent 35% of your evaluation in that year. You will work with your administrator to set these goals at the beginning of your summative year. Many of you will be able to use MCA testing data for these goals. In areas with no state-wide testing requirements, staff should choose assessments that represent key learning in their grade or subject area.
