  24. Dearborn Teacher and Administrator Layoff, Recall, and Placement Policies

  25. Legislative Changes • During the Summer of 2011 the State of Michigan Passed Legislation that impacts Teacher Tenure, Evaluations, and Prohibited Subjects of Bargaining. • We are now required by law to pass policies that include layoff, recall, and placement of teachers and administrators.

  26. Formation of the Policies • The formation of the proposed policies started in December 2012 as we began to study what other districts were doing. • However, this is totally new so there were not a lot of models to follow. Thus we created our own model. • The DFT and ADSA were given an opportunity to provide input into the formulation of these polices.

  27. Policies Continued • All potential policies were reviewed by our attorney • The Board Policy Committee met on April 25th to discuss and review the potential policies. • The entire Board of Education had a discussion regarding this at the April 29th Board Meeting.

  28. Changes Continued • We believe that our model is on the cutting edge with regards these policies. • It is good for our students and the Dearborn Educational Model.

  29. Proposed Policies and Guidelines: • 1. DFT Layoff and Recall 3131 • 2. DFT Placement 3130.10 • 3. ADSA Layoff and Recall 3131.10 • 4. ADSA Placement 3130.20

  30. DFT Layoff and Recall Formula (A new policy that we developed) • There is a sequential order to the ranking system • 1.  Evaluation ratings. (Ineffective, minimally effective, effective and highly effective).

  31. Layoff and Recall Formula Continued • 2. Plan III teacher level of implementation (only applies to teachers plan III Improvement Plan). • 3. Discipline-suspension over 5 days. • 4. Employees with severe attendance problems on step 6 of the absence verification procedure.

  32. 5. Attendance calculation over a two-year period.    • 6.  Attendance at Professional development.  • 7.  Discipline involving less than five days of suspension. • 8. Seniority

  33. DFT Placement Policy and Guidelines • Teachers can apply for transfers • Administrators will review resumes for potential candidates • There will be several performance and qualification criteria for selection of specific assignments

  34. DFT Placement Policy and Guidelines Continued Teachers will have to interview for potential transfers and will need to be accepted by building administrators/ interview committees The Superintendent has the right to realign staff in the best interest of students and the school program

  35. Any employees rated ineffective will not have recall rights. • Summer School Placement will now be based on a formula that involves performance and attendance

  36. ADSA Layoff, Recall, and Placement Formula Not much has changed from the contract. We kept most of the language.  There are criteria when considering layoff similar to the policy with the DFT but they are evaluated as a whole vs. a sequential process. This is similar for the placement policy and guidelines for administrators.

  37. Questions?

  38. Thank you to the following individuals/groups for their support • The Board of Education Policy Committee • The Board of Education • Mr. Whiston, Superintendent • Union Leadership for their input.

  39. Teacher Evaluation

  40. Legislation Requires • Rigorous, transparent, and fair performance evaluation systems • Evaluations based on multiple rating categories • Evaluation based in part on student growth: as determined by multiple measures of student learning including national, state or local assessments or other objective criteria as a significant factor.

  41. Evaluation ComponentsObservation Protocol • 1. The measurement of practice (what an educator does) based on a definition of practice that is clear, observable, commonly accepted, and supported by transparent measurement methods and instruments that are technically sound and validated against desired outcomes.

  42. Evaluation Components Student Outcomes • 2. The measurement of student outcomes based on a definition of desired student outcomes that is clear commonly accepted, and supported by transparent measurement methods and instruments that are technically sound and validated against desired outcomes.

  43. Defining Effective Teaching Two basic approaches: Teacher practices, that is, what teachers do, how well they do the work of teaching Results, that is, what teachers accomplish, typically how well their students learn Assessing Teacher Effectiveness, Charlotte Danielson

  44. Observation Protocol has been the predominant focus, however that will shift soon Currently calls for 25% based on student growth and assessment.

  45. Evaluation Focus Shift: What does this mean?

  46. Winston Churchill • True genius resides in the capacity for evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information.

  47. Governor’s Council will • Make specific recommendations to the Governor and Legislature regarding this by April 30, 2012 • They Shall submit a growth and assessment tool (MCL) 380.1249(5)(a)

  48. They Shall submit a growth and assessment tool (MCL) 380.1249(5)(a) • That is value-added (MCL) 380.1249(5)(a) (I) • Has at least a pre and post test (MCL) 380.1249(5)(a) (IV) • It must be based on 3 years of data if the data is available. (MCL) 380.1249(2)(a) (II)

  49. MCEE Council Recommendations • Michigan Council for Educational Effectiveness Report was released July 2013.
