The document describes the development of an evaluation tool for educators in the Alaska Gateway School District. It outlines the key components of the evaluation system, including four performance standards (learning environment, planning, instructional delivery, and professionalism), student learning objectives, cultural standards, observations, and other sources of information. It establishes goals for the evaluation process to be streamlined, linked to indicators, supportive of educators, and useful for professional development. Groups of educators will work to determine proficiency indicators within each of the four performance standards by reviewing examples from approved frameworks and choosing those that align with the standard's supporting categories.
