Teacher Evaluation in NC
• The North Carolina Educator Effectiveness System
(NCEES) has six standards of performance for teachers
and eight standards for principals.
• NC has a conjunctive model, meaning that teachers and
principals must be proficient (or better) on all standards
in order to receive an overall effectiveness rating. We do
not average or index these standards.
• Unlike the observational standards, student growth
(standard 6 for teacher, standard 8 for principals),
requires three years of valid data in order to generate a
rating.

Teacher Status – First Status
• For all teachers (and principals) the first status for
Standard 6 will be generated from the best two out of
three valid Standard 6 ratings.
• School-level growth that has been assigned to a teacher
as a result of a waiver (from NCFEs or ASW) will
function as a valid Standard 6 rating.
• School-level growth that has been assigned as a result
of a lack of data for a teacher (i.e., not from a waiver) will
not count as a valid Standard 6 rating.

Teacher has individual-level
data for the final two years.
The 2012-13 data is schoollevel growth because teacher
did not have individual-level
data.
The teacher does not receive
a status in the fall of 2015
because teacher does not
have 3 years of valid data.
First status in Fall 2016
(provided teacher has valid
data in SY 2015-16).
