Daily Announcements

The New York State Education Department (NYSED) has released two important resources for district leaders as they implement a critical component of the new teacher evaluation system: theStudent Learning Objective (SLO) Road Map and the Student Learning Objective Guidance Document. These documents explain how New York State will assess the 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).
