Final Summative

Complete the End-of-Year Final Summative appraisal that combines observation and evidence into overall T-TESS ratings.

Helpful Tips

From a teacher's page, use New > Final/Summative to start the end-of-year summative; it works the same as Walkthroughs and Observations.
The Final/Summative includes an extra column (*) that pulls in prior observation data.
If the district gives a single overall summative rating, student growth must count at least 20% (the four rubric domains make up the other 80%).
If ratings are kept disaggregated across the 16 dimensions, student growth acts as an unweighted 17th dimension.
