A. Providing that measures of student learning and growth may not constitute more than 20% of the educator's total score in a performance evaluation and professional growth system adopted by a school administrative unit that uses a numerical approach to determine an educator's summative effectiveness rating; and providing that equivalent measures of student learning and growth must be incorporated in a performance evaluation and professional growth system adopted by a school administrative unit that that uses a matrix approach to determine an educator's summative effectiveness rating; and
B. Providing that the 20% measure in a performance evaluation and professional growth system adopted by a school administrative unit that uses a numerical approach, or its equivalent measure in a performance evaluation and professional growth system that uses a numerical approach, must include multiple measures of student learning and growth, including the following measures in determining an educator's summative effectiveness rating:
(1) For all educators, 5% of the summative effectiveness rating must consist of measures of student learning and growth as reflected in standardized assessment data from two school-wide assessment tests for reading and mathematics;
(2) For educators who teach in grades and subjects in which 2 consecutive years of summative assessment data are available, 15% of the summative effectiveness rating must consist of measures of student learning and growth as reflected in the summative assessment data. The Department of Education, through meaningful consultation during the 2013-2014 school year with the Maine Educator Effectiveness Council as described in section 2 of this resolve, shall develop guidelines for calculating the measures of student learning and growth at the classroom level. The measures must be evaluated as a pilot project during the 2014-2015 school year; and
(3) For educators who do not teach in grades and subjects in which 2 consecutive years of summative assessment data are available, 15% of the summative effectiveness rating must consist of measures of student learning and growth as reflected in student progress in meeting 2 learning goals as measured by formal or teacher-created assessments. All educators are required to establish 2 student learning goals for measuring student learning and growth. The goals established for measuring student learning and growth must include 2 data points, be rigorous and comparable across classrooms;
