Thanks to Neil Connolly, Principal at Carle Place HS, for sending us this important information.

The New York State Education Department has just released two important resources for District leaders as they implement a critical component of the new teacher evaluation system: theStudent Learning Objective Road Map and the Student Learning Objective Guidance Document. These documents explain how New York State will assess the student learning growth of students in classrooms where there is no State assessment that can be used for a State-provided growth or value-added measure (sometimes called "non-tested subjects"). These resources are posted on EngageNY.org for administrators and are available at the following link:http://engageny.org/resource/student-learning-objectives/. A Teacher Overview is also posted on the teacher tab. Future tools and resources will also be provided on EngageNY.org.
