Growth and Achievement
Measure Selection in CODE
Step 1: Select the Approved Achievement Measure
The same list of options are included on the Achievement Measure Worksheet
and the Approved Achievement Measure in CODE
Step 2: Select the Achievement Measure Type
The list of options
under Achievement
Measure Type will
pre-populate based
on the measure
selected for the
Approved
Achievement
Measure
Step 3: Set the Achievement Scores
Enter the appropriate scale scores for that
achievement measure.
NOTE: This is optional, however, we recommend
that you include the scales in CODE so you can
determine the appropriate score at the end of
the year and in the event that there is a
grievance about the achievement score.
Step 3: Set the Achievement Scores
NOTE: Once you enter the scale scores in CODE, those same scales will
prepopulate any time you select the same measure for other teachers in
your building. You may edit those fields in the event that you have
differentiated the scale scores by teacher.
Step 4: Enter the Rationale (optional)
This field is optional if the
evaluator wants to enter the
rationale into CODE.
Step 5: Enter the Growth Measure Selection
Select the appropriate school-wide growth measure for each teacher.
NOTE: For this year, evaluators must select a school-wide score for all teachers as a back-up measure
in the event that an individual growth score is not returned. When growth scores are returned, all
teachers with individual growth scores will have their individual scores automatically merged in. The
selected school-wide growth measure will not be used if a teacher earns an individual growth score.
Step 6: Submit the Forms
Once you have selected the appropriate achievement and growth measures for all
educators in your building, you need to submit the forms. At that time, the
selections and scales can only be edited by a district administrator.
Step 7: Enter the Scores
Scores will not be entered until the end of the year. The achievement score will be
manually entered, and the growth scores and individual growth scores will be automatically
imported, unless “manual entry” was the option selected for the growth score.
