Final Rating. Each employee shall be given a copy of his/her performance assessment within 26 ten (10) calendar days after completion; but not later than April 1. Additional performance 27 assessments completed after April 1 will be given to each employee within ten (10) calendar days 28 after completion.
Final Rating. To obtain the final rating, each category’s sub-scores are combined on the Evaluation Matrix. The vertical axis of the Evaluation Matrix represents student growth measures and the horizontal axis on the table represents teacher performance. After final ratings for teachers have been determined, Western Reserve will use the Ohio eTPES (electronic Teacher and Principal Evaluation System) to report their teacher and principal final summative ratings to the state. Western Reserve must report the number of teachers and principals for whom an evaluation was conducted and the number of teachers and principals assigned each rating to the ODE. eTPES will calculate the 50% Student Growth Measures from manually entered data and downloaded data (Value-Added). It will then calculate the Final Summative Rating (using the Teacher Performance 50% and the Student Growth Measures 50%) for each educator.
Final Rating a. At the end of each appraisal period, an employee shall receive a summary rating of outstanding, superior, fully successful, marginal, or unacceptable. For an employee to obtain a summary rating of fully successful, the employee must achieve a rating of at least “meets fully successful” on all elements.
b. Employee performance ratings shall be based solely on individual merit, and not limited by any artificial quota system in any office or division or in the Agency at large. Since no summary rating level requires recognition by awards, the final rating of employees is not contingent upon the availability of awards. The Agency shall ensure that supervisors are aware of the proper application and operation of the Agency’s employee rating system in order to ensure that uniform rating policies are applied uniformly throughout the Agency.
c. Supervisors shall discuss final ratings with employees. The final rating shall be reflected in a written performance appraisal and shall be given to the employee as soon as possible after the end of the rating period, but not more than 30 days thereafter. This time limit may be extended to allow an employee to comment upon, discuss, or provide additional information with respect to the rating. Additionally, this time limit does not apply to:
i. an employee who has not yet completed a performance improvement plan;
ii. a new employee who has not yet met the minimum time period for a rating; or
iii. an employee who has been reassigned or promoted to a new position, but has not yet met the minimum time period for a rating.
d. An employee who wishes to challenge or appeal a final rating may do so by following the grievance procedures set forth in the Grievances and Arbitration Article of this Agreement.

Final Rating. The final rating of each faculty member shall be determined by the Chair. The final rating shall be Excellent, Satisfactory with Commendation, Commendable, Satisfactory, Satisfactory with Reservation, or Unsatisfactory Needs Improvement. The professional judgment of Only an evaluation with an unsatisfactory rating by the evaluator is not subject to the grievance procedure.
Final Rating. Following the summative evaluation, the Administrator will compile a final rating for the Teacher that will combine the observation (55%), the achievement of students (35%), and the engagement of students (10%). A final rating will only identify a Teacher’s performance as “meeting expectations” or “not meeting expectations.” If a Teacher does not attain a rating that demonstrates adequate proficiency, the Teacher and the Administrator will continue working together for the rest of the year and during the following year to achieve proficiency. If the Administrator is dissatisfied with progress and competency, the Administrator has the discretion to employ the tools and actions currently in contract, policy, and/or procedure to manage the situation. This may include administrative mode. The results of HCM’s process with Peer Coaches is clearly defined in the MOUs in the Master Agreement. The results of summative evaluations in this process of TDE will not impact the awarding of the bonus through HCM, unless the Teacher is placed officially on administrative mode. If a Teacher is placed on administrative mode, the Teacher will not qualify for the bonus or experiential increment until the placement is lifted.
