Observation
School leaders and/or peers observe a teacher’s classroom practice, collect evidence, align the evidence to the Framework for Effective Teaching, arrive at an indicator score to help capture the level of performance, and identify strengths and opportunities for growth. In 2022-23, observation will be tied to the LEAP Learning Cycles (click on "Observation" to read more).

2. Supports Students
3. Communicates High Expectations -
Student Growth
Measures how teaching impacts student academic learning and growth. When taken into account with other measures of teacher performance, student academic outcomes provide a more holistic picture of the learning that results from teacher actions over the course of a year.
