On January 12, 2006, the Houston Independent School |
|
District (HISD) Board of Education approved a teacher |
|
performance-pay program awarding teachers financial |
|
incentives based on three indicators of performance pay, |
|
using value-added methodology. For 2015-2016, HISD did |
|
not renew its contract with SAS EVAAS . The amended model |
|
replaced EVAAS with comparative growth as an award |
|
indicator. There are four major components of the Amended |
|
ASPIRE Award Model for Teachers and Campus Based Staff: |
|
(1) Group Performance based on Campus Comparative Growth; |
|
(2) Group Performance based on Campus Academic |
|
Achievement; (3) Group Performance based on Grade/Subject |
|
Student Growth; and (4) Individual Performance based on |
|
Teacher Comparative Growth. After consultations with |
|
national experts, teachers, and administrators, the |
|
teacher performance-pay model was improved and enhanced, |
|
which then became the ASPIRE Award, one component of the |
|
district's ASPIRE (Accelerating Student Progress: |
|
Increasing Results and Expectations) school improvement |
|
and performance management model. The purpose of the HISD |
|
ASPIRE Award Model was to reward teachers for their |
|
efforts in improving the academic growth of their |
|
students. The 2015-2016 ASPIRE Award uses comparative |
|
growth to provide teachers with the information they need |
|
to facilitate and measure student progress at the |
|
student, classroom, and campus levels. Due to budget |
|
constraints the 2015-2016 ASPIRE Award is the final |
|
district wide payout of this performance pay program. |
|
This report summarizes the effectiveness of the 2015-2016 |
|
ASPIRE Award as required by federal grants. The following |
|
analyses are included in the evaluation: (1) Award Payout |
|
by Model and Year; (2) Recruitment and Retention; (3) |
|
Teacher Attendance; (4) Survey Feedback; and (5) |
|
Distribution of Highly Effective Teachers Across the |
|
District. |
