Case: Administrative Evaluation Understanding
I am a teacher in a Magnet School of the Arts. I work in the Fine Arts Department. My evaluating administrator often gives me a Needs Improvement rating on Knowledge of Content. I am extremely knowledgeable about the subject I teach, and could not disagree more with her. I have spoken to her several times to ask what I need to do in order to receive a proficient in this category, and she cannot give me a definite answer. She says something to the extent of "I don't know much about your subject, but there has to be more to it." I have spoken to my principal about the matter, and his response is no better. He also states that he "doesn't know much about it either, and he'll try to find one who does to help me." What should I do in this situation, and how do I get them to understand that I know what I'm doing. My students show significant gains each year on the SLO Assessments, but that does not seem to be enough.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It might help to have the appropriate standards posted somewhere around the room and refer to them often when you are being observed, to show your observer that you are competent in the knowledge used to complete the standards. Also having the students respond to the appropriate standard with a small explanation may help the observer to realize that the students are learning the appropriate material. |

Comments: I like the idea of having standards posted in the room. I find it unbelievable that teachers are making up the curriculum without better support and assistance. |
