Measuring Principal Impact on Student Growth

Just as teachers are linked to the students they teach, Act 54 directs BESE to use measures of student growth to evaluate the performance of principals and to develop standards for ineffective and effective principals. Mirroring teacher evaluations, half of a principal’s or administrator’s evaluation will be based on student growth measures, or the GO-Index.

Through the work and recommendation of ACEE, BESE will make a final decision on the GO-Index for principals no sooner than spring 2011, but again, will rely heavily on input from the education community as this component of Act 54 is addressed.
