Student Learning Objectives (SLOs) for SSPs
-
Why SLOs?
State law requires school districts to include individual measures of student growth. SSPs do not have student growth scores so they must complete two SLOs to meet the requirement for multiple measures from SB 10-191. At Denver Public Schools, an SSP’s evaluation consists of two SLOs (50%) and ratings for each of the five professional practice expectations (50%). Additionally, SLOs are educator-centered and respect educators as professionals, SLOs use a body of evidence, and SLOs allow for the closest connection between the instruction and learning that happens in your therapy, consultation, or evaluation of students.
SSP SLOs
SSPs should use the SLO Application Tool to complete two SLOs during the school year. Please refer to your department leadership on the selection of SLOs. Please visit the ARE Student Learning Objectives (SLO) section on the Commons for additional resources. You can also reach out to SLOHelp@dpsk12.org or (720) 423-2406.
