Educator Effectiveness Toolkit - Examples from Oregon Districts
The materials on this page are working documents from Oregon school districts. They are provided as examples for districts as they work to revise and refine their evaluation and support systems. This page will be updated periodically as more materials become available.
Student Learning and Growth Goals

Observation and Evidence
- Educator Effectiveness e-Portfolios In this 7 minute video, the assistant superintendent of North Central ESD provides an overview of their use of a learning management system to create educator effectiveness e-portfolios for teachers.
- Specialist Rubrics As districts design their evaluation and support systems they are identifying staff whose work may not completely align with the district adopted rubrics for teachers and administrators. The rubrics on this page are samples of specialist rubrics in use in other districts. Disclaimer: The inclusion of these rubrics does not constitute an endorsement by the Oregon Department of Education.
- Administrator Rubrics
- Non-builidng Administrator Rubric (Lebanon SD) The domains and standards apply to administrators that are not assigned to school buildings. These employees are in management positions throughout the district. Though these standards could apply to any leader, they are specifically written for non-building administrators.
- Observation Tools
- Staff Meeting Observation Tool (Salem-Keizer) This tool developed by the Salem-Keizer School District is designed to be used during an observation of a principal conducting a staff meeting.
- Post-Observation Conference Tool This document, developed by several Oregon school districts, is designed to be used during an observation of a principal conducting a post-observation conference with a teacher.
