Teacher List - %P/A
This report provides a list of all teachers in a school who completed Roster Verification in the most recent year and:
- Claimed at least 11 students across all subjects
- Claimed an equivalent of at least six full-time students
Calculations
These calculations meet the standards for inclusion in Act 13 Teacher-Specific Data. LEAs/Districts can use these calculations to complete Act 13 evaluations or they can calculate this metric locally.
The three steps in calculating the data for this report are:
Excluding Ineligible Students
Students meeting the following criteria are excluded from this report:
- Claimed at less than 10%
- First-year English learners in PSSA ELA and Keystone Literature
- Home-schooled students
In addition, we apply the Keystone proficiency and the 2019-20 Keystone Score Exemption rules.
Weighting the Remaining Students
Students are weighted based on the percentages of instructional responsibility in Roster Verification. As an example, assume a teacher is linked to 12 students as shown in the table below.
Student | Instructional Responsibility | Performance Level | Numerator | Denominator |
---|---|---|---|---|
Student 1 | 100% | Proficient | 1 | 1 |
Student 2 | 50% | Proficient | 0.5 | 0.5 |
Student 3 | 50% | Basic | 0 | 0.5 |
Student 4 | 100% | Advanced | 1 | 1 |
Student 5 | 80% | Proficient | 0.8 | 0.8 |
Student 6 | 100% | Advanced | 1 | 1 |
Student 7 | 50% | Advanced | 0.5 | 0.5 |
Student 8 | 50% | Proficient | 0.5 | 0.5 |
Student 9 | 100% | Proficient | 1 | 1 |
Student 10 | 100% | Proficient | 1 | 1 |
Student 11 | 80% | Below Basic | 0 | 0.8 |
Student 12 | 6% | Advanced | 0 | 0 |
The denominator matches the percentage of instructional responsibility unless a student is excluded from the analysis due to the reasons described in Excluding Ineligible Students. The numerator also matches the percentage of instructional responsibility, unless the student's performance is something other than Proficient or Advanced or the student is excluded from the analysis.
The zeroes in the last two columns of the table above indicate that student 12 is excluded from the analysis. This student is excluded because they are claimed at less than 10%.
The calculation of this teacher's percentage of Proficient or Advanced students is:
In this example, 84.88% of the teacher's students are Proficient or Advanced. This teacher receives a scale score of 2.0 because 84.88% lies between 80-89.9%.
Assigning the Scale Scores
The table below indicates which 0-3 scale score teachers receive based on the percentage of proficient or advanced students attributable to them. The 0-3 scale score is recorded on evaluations as part of Act 13 Teacher-Specific Data.
% Students Proficient or Advanced | 0-3 Scale Score |
---|---|
95-100% | 3.0 |
90-94.9% | 2.5 |
80-89.9% | 2.0 |
70-79.9% | 1.5 |
65-69.9% | 1.0 |
60-64.9% | 0.5 |
Below 60% | 0.0 |
