  4. MPES Overview The Mississippi Principal Evaluation System (MPES) is an indicator of principal performance: • Overseen by the MDE’s Office of Federal Programs • Developed to meet federal requirements as part of the MDE’s Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) flexibility waiver • Piloted in 2012-2013 by 219 principals in 34 districts

  5. MPES Overview, Cont. Rates principals and CTE directors on a 1-4 scale: • Two schoolwide goals - state assessments in language arts and mathematics (for CTE directors, goals are set based on Year 1 students and Year 2 students) • Two organizational goals - leading/lagging indicators of school success (attendance, truancy, discipline, AP/dual credit, etc.) • Circle Survey or MDE-approved alternative

  6. MPES Overview, Cont. Circle Survey 30%

  7. MPES Overview, Cont. • Starting in 2013-2014, participation in MPES became mandatory for all head principals and career and technical education (CTE) directors in Mississippi’s public schools serving K-12 populations • Optional participation (determined by each district) for assistant principals and alternative school directors • 1,283 head/asst./alternative school principals and CTE directors are participating in MPES in 2013-2014

  8. MPES Overview, Cont. • Starting in 2014-2015, ALL assistant principals in Mississippi’s public schools serving K-12 populations will also be required to participate in MPES. • Special MDE advisory boards are refining the MPES process for other groups of administrators, including alternative school directors, special school directors (School for the Blind, School for the Deaf, School of the Arts, and School for Mathematics and Science), etc.

  9. Goals for Today • Participants in the Circle Survey • How feedback from the Circle Survey will be used to evaluate principals and CTE directors • How to access and complete the survey • How confidentiality will be ensured • What questions will be asked in the survey • View a live demo

  10. I. Participation in the Circle Survey Just as the Mississippi Teacher Evaluation System (MTES) requires principals to rate all teachers’ performance, MPES requires certified staff members (e.g., those with educator licenses) to rate a principal’s performance. The survey should be completed by all staff members who are currently: • full- and part-time certified staff (teachers, librarians, counselors, etc.) • actively employed in the same school where the MPES participant works • will have been employed by the school for at least 60 calendar days prior to the deadline to complete the Circle Survey (Feb. 28, 2014)

  11. II. How Feedback from the Survey Impacts MPES Participants The Circle Survey has 3 equally weighted components: • Certified staff feedback (33% of overall survey score) • Principal self evaluation (33% of overall survey score) • Supervisor evaluation (33% of overall survey score)

  12. II. How Feedback from the Survey Impacts Principals, Cont. The Circle Survey counts 30% of a principal’s overall score in MPES: • MDE does not anticipate the use of MPES scores for high-stakes decisions until approx. 2016-2017 • Principals and CTE directors receive detailed reports of their Circle Survey scores to identify strengths and weaknesses

  13. III. How to Access & Complete the Survey • Research & Curriculum Unit (RCU) at MSU administers the Circle Survey • Survey is 30 questions • Questions were screened by multiple focus groups, including invited and randomly selected educators from across the state representing various stakeholder groups

  14. III. How to Access & Complete the Survey, Cont. • Survey will be available from Jan. 21-Feb. 28 and takes <30 min. to complete • May be completed at each participant’s convenience (in a lab setting, from home, etc.)—requires only a computer with Internet access • No identifying information is requested in the survey—access is granted via unique key code

  15. III. How to Access & Complete the Survey, Cont. • Based on its certified staff member population, each district will be issued a list of randomly generated key codes for distribution to certified staff • Certified staff members will go to the survey link provided by MDE and type in their key codes

  16. III. How to Access & Complete the Survey, Cont. • Survey requires participants to acknowledge that they must be certified staff members • Survey requires participants to verify their district and the name of the administrator being evaluated • Survey has “save and continue” functionality (this feature does require participants to enter their email address, BUT this data is not retained)

  17. III. How to Access & Complete the Survey, Cont. • If participants do not wish to enter email to “save and continue,” then they may simply start the survey again from the beginning (unique key code will work until the participant hits “submit”) • Certified staff members evaluating multiple administrators (e.g., head principal and asst. principal) will be given multiple key codes (one survey completed per administrator) • Survey results issued to districts in March 2014

  18. IV. Ensuring Confidentiality • Certified staff data are filtered automatically by each principal and reported to MDE and district administrators in the aggregate only • A certified staff member’s individual responses are never reported to districts or the MDE • Names corresponding with key codes are never received by the RCU • Tip: For even more anonymity, consider using a computer with a non-user specific IP address (IP addresses are not shared with districts or principals)

  19. V. Preview of Survey Questions View the finalized Circle Survey questions at https://www.rcu.msstate.edu/MDE/MississippiPrincipalEvaluationSystem(MPES).aspx Note: You willnotbe asked to provide artifacts or documentation when completing the survey.

  20. VI. View a Live Demo Let’s take a few minutes to view a demo survey. Reminder: The actual Circle Survey website and key codes will be provided to each district for dissemination in Jan. 2014.
