Classroom Teacher RubricRubrics – defined in the regulations as “scoring tool[s] that describe characteristics of practice or artifacts at different levels of performance”(603 CMR 35.02) – are a critical component of the Massachusetts educator evaluation framework and are required for every educator. Rubricsare designed to help educators and evaluators (1) develop a consistent, shared understanding of what proficient performance looks like inpractice, (2) develop a common terminology and structure to organize evidence, and (3) make informed professional judgments about formativeand summative performance ratings on each Standard and overall.Structure of the Teacher Rubric Standards: Standards are the broad categories of knowledge, skills, and performance of effective practice detailed in the regulations.There are four Standards for teachers: Curriculum, Planning, and Assessment; Teaching All Students; Family and CommunityEngagement; and Professional Culture. Indicators: Indicators, also detailed in the regulations, describe specific knowledge, skills, and performance for each Standard. Forexample, there are three Indicators in Standard I of the teacher rubric: Curriculum and Planning; Assessment; and Analysis. There are 17Indicators in total for teachers. Elements: The elements are more specific descriptions of actions and behaviors related to each Indicator. The elements break down theIndicators into more specific aspects of educator practice and provide an opportunity for evaluators to offer detailed feedback thatserves as a roadmap for improvement. Descriptors: Performance descriptors are observable and measurable statements of educator actions and behaviors aligned to eachelement and serve as the basis for identifying the level of performance in one of four categories: Unsatisfactory, Needs Improvement,Proficient, or Exemplary.Use of the Teacher RubricThis rubric describes teaching practice. It is intended to support the entire 5 step evaluation cycle for all teachers, including teachers of wholeclassrooms, small groups, individual students, or any combination of the above. The rubric is designed to be applicable to general educationteachers from pre-K through Advanced Placement, as well as teachers with specialized classes or knowledge, including teachers of EnglishLanguage Learners, and special education teachers; districts may also choose to use this rubric for educators in other roles such as specialists.DESE encourages educators and evaluators to use the rubric strategically by discussing and agreeing upon certain Indicators and elements thatmay be high priorities according to that educator’s role and responsibilities as well as his/her professional practice and student learning needs.There are a variety of ways to emphasize these components throughout the evaluation cycle. For example, educators may focus more on highpriority Indicators and/or elements during self-assessment, target them during goal setting or evidence collection, or all of the above. Theexpectation is that by the end of the evaluation cycle, educators and evaluators have gathered and shared a reasonable amount of evidencerelated to practice in all four Standards, sufficient to support a rating for each Standard. Evaluators may request additional evidence as needed.ii

Classroom Teacher RubricSTANDARD I: Curriculum, Planning, and AssessmentThe teacher promotes the learning and growth of all students by providing high-quality and coherent instruction, designingand administering authentic and meaningful student assessments, analyzing student performance and growth data, usingthis data to improve instruction, providing students with constructive feedback on an ongoing basis, and continuously refininglearning objectives.Indicator I-A. Curriculum & PlanningKnows the subject matter well, has a good grasp of child development and how students learn, and designs effective and rigorous standardsbased units of instruction consisting of well-structured lessons with measurable outcomes.I-A-1.Subject MatterKnowledgeUnsatisfactoryNeeds ImprovementProficientExemplary1Demonstrates limited knowledge ofthe subject matter and/or itspedagogy; relies heavily ontextbooks or resources fordevelopment of the factual content.Rarely engages students in learningexperiences focused on complexknowledge or subject-specific skillsand vocabulary.Demonstrates factual knowledge ofsubject matter and the pedagogy itrequires by sometimes engagingstudents in learning experiencesthat enable them to acquirecomplex knowledge and subjectspecific skills and vocabulary.Demonstrates sound knowledgeand understanding of the subjectmatter and the pedagogy it requiresby consistently engaging students inlearning experiences that enablethem to acquire complexknowledge and subject-specificskills and vocabulary, such that theyare able to make and assessevidence-based claims andarguments.Demonstrates expertise in subjectmatter and the pedagogy it requiresby consistently engaging allstudents in learning experiencesthat enable them to acquire,synthesize, and apply complexknowledge and subject-specificskills and vocabulary, such that theyare able to make and assessevidence-based claims andarguments. Models this practice forothers.1Exemplary practice in many elements includes the expectation that an educator model the practice for other educators. Modeling can occur in formal and informal ways,including but not limited to training, teaching, coaching, assisting, sharing, and/or demonstrating good practice. Where and when this expectation is appropriate, this level ofexpertise is denoted by “Models this practice for others.”1
