Sorry for the delay! I had a presentation earlier and walked in to a surprise
wedding shower from my co-workers, so I've been a bit tied up this afternoon :)
See below!
Is this news to anyone else? The 2015 information has a phase in showing that
the 90% attendance wouldn't actually be used until 2019-2020, but the latest
presentation from them indicates that elementary and middle will be applied
sooner than that.

Subject: UPDATES - TKES-LKES
Please be sure all of your evaluators have this information.
1. The Component Rating Webinar that was held on March 20th has been
posted to the platform. There are two ways to access it.
a. Go to USER GUIDES; Site Administrators; Informational Webinars
(Component Rating Webinar).
b. Go to Professional Learning Opportunities; Webinars; #211. The webinar
and the powerpoint are found there.
2. Here is the direct link to the webinar.
https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/recording/30795503118311426
3. I am attaching the FAQ that was composed from questions asked during
the webinar. If you attended the webinar, you will already have received this.
4. Also attached is the TKES Summative Component Rating Quick Guide for
evaluators.
5. TKES and LKES Credentialing Training - Initial training for
evaluators of teachers and leaders has been scheduled for May 16 and 17 for
TKES and May 18 for LKES. The training will be held at Whitney PL Complex, 3
Laura St, Savannah, Ga. Registration is through the First District RESA
website. If you have persons who will be evaluating teachers or leaders for
the first time in the coming year, this will be the best opportunity to make
sure they are ready to begin at the first of the new year. There is no charge
for this training.
6. IRR Matched Pair Observations are currently underway. If you would
like for your building evaluators to participate, please contact me. I would
conduct 30 minute observations with them and we would compare and discuss the
teacher and student evidence that led to our ratings . When teams of
evaluators participate in this process, it can be very helpful.
7. Remind your evaluators of TKES that they should complete the
Observations Completion Signoff once they have completed all of the
observations on a given teacher. This will allow them to see all of the
observation data in one place as they move into their summative assessments and
conferences.
8. Please note in the FAQ that the summative conference deadline for TKES
was listed as May 30th early in the year. This has been updated to May 15th.
Please encourage all of your evaluators to complete Summative Conferences for
TKES by May 15th.
9. The platform for Summative Assessments does lock on May 15th and
cannot be reopened. If you set your district deadlines earlier, it will allow
for errors to be corrected before they become part of the permanent record.
10. Last year, there were missing ratings in many summative assessments.
Please check reports to be sure your evaluators are rating all ten standards.
Please let me know if I can help you in any way.
