Common use of Student Performance Data Clause in Contracts

Student Performance Data. Federal, state, and district assessments are valuable program evaluation tools that can drive improvement efforts at the classroom, school and district levels. Many factors affect student performance, and some of these factors are outside the control of the teaching staff; therefore, the judgments reflected in staff evaluations will be based on the professional performance of the employee (as measured against the standards in Appendices E through M) and not the standardized test or performance assessment scores of the students taught by that employee.
