- When available, data from statewide assessments must be used to inform the evaluation process.
- All assessment data used in educator evaluations must be aligned with Arizona State Standards.
- Districts and charters must include student achievement data for reading and/or math as appropriate; however, student achievement data should not be strictly limited to these content areas.
- Evaluation instruments should integrate student academic progress data with data derived through classroom observations – neither should stand alone.
- All evaluators should receive professional development in the form of Qualified Evaluator Training.
- Districts and charters should provide for the development of classroom-level achievement data for teachers in those content areas where these data are limited or do not currently exist so that all teachers use the Group A framework.
- Districts and charters should develop and provide professional development on the evaluation process and in those areas articulated in Arizona’s Professional Teaching and Administrative Standards, as approved by the State Board of Education.
