APPR 2.0: Making Changes to Your Plans

Scheduled Working Sessions:

We've scheduled a number of work sessions that will help you think about any changes and improvements to your APPR plan. The meetings are topical and will all start with lunch at 11:30a with a focused block of work from 12:00 - 1:30p. Meetings will be held in the Rodax 8 Large conference room. Click on the link for each to register.

April 18: Where do we stand and what have we learned? Bring your present APPR plan. First, check in with the rule changes included in the budget with regard to APPR plans and submission. Second, we'll gather data about current practices in districts. Lastly, we'll identify the changes we think would improve our plans. Also, Forms and record keeping -- what do we really need? A lot of time is spent on forms. What do we need to do? How are the different electronic platforms faring?

June 12: The release of scores to parents. We reviewed the rules about the communication of score information to parents andreached some regional consensus about how we will go about doing this in a way that is relatively consistent and manageable. A regional approach to this will help districts manage their requests and the means by which they respond. The resources we used and tools we created are here:

• Session slides
• Summary sheet of the legal requirements §3012-c(10)(b)
• Bill language §3012-c(10)(b)
• Example notice language (to be posted on the website and/or included with other notifications)
• Teacher score request sample
• Principal score request sample
• Sample written response to eligible requests
• APPR explanation to include with response

July 19 (1:00p Cortland) or July 22 (9:00a Syracuse): SLOs, LATs, evidence collection and summative conversations. What did we learn from the SLOs and LATs that we need to change? What did we learn from the evidence collection process? What did we learn from the summative conversations with teachers?
