Our Position on Educator Evaluation

Assessment data is playing more of a role in measuring teacher effectiveness. NWEA believes that student achievement data is just one part of the equation. As an education community, we must work together to construct fair systems that take into account the entire learning process. We are committed to partnering with districts, schools and teachers in the thoughtful use of multiple measures that support optimal learning, elevate student achievement and empower classroom success.
