Common use of Criterion Rating Clause in Contracts

Criterion Rating. The final summative score for either a comprehensive or a focused evaluation is determined by an analysis of evidence. The scoring methodology to be used will be “preponderance of evidence” subject to the following: 1. Evaluators may score criterion indicators throughout the year and/or enlist reflective conversations to provide guidance to teachers concerning specific performance. The intent is to ensure teachers are made aware of serious deficits as early as is reasonably practical. 2. After scoring all criterion indicators, the evaluator shall make a judgment as to the criterion score based on the overall evidence collected rather than the raw indicator score. The intent is to ensure that the evaluator may exercise professional discretion, based on having adhered to the collaborative inquiry and evidence collection process, when determining the final criterion score.
