Common use of High Quality Student Data Clause in Contracts

High Quality Student Data. High-quality student data (HQSD) is used to guide instructional decisions and meet student learning needs. HQSD must be reviewed by locally determined experts in the field of education to meet all of the required criteria and the teachers must use the data specified in and generated from the HQSD data instrument (Appendix C). Evaluations must use at least two measures of HQSD to provide evidence of student learning attributable to the teacher being evaluated when required. When applicable to the grade level or subject area taught by a teacher, HQSD includes the value-added progress dimension established under R.C. 3302.021, except when otherwise prohibited by law. HQSD may be used as evidence in any component of the evaluation where applicable. Data from ODE vendor-approved sources may be considered HQSD as approved by the teacher and evaluator. Teacher-generated measures that meet all criteria on Appendix C will be approved by both the teacher and evaluator.
