Certified Staff Survey

The Certified Staff Survey (CSS) is no longer included in the GAPSS process.

The GAPSS team will review perception data collected from TKES surveys when available.

Observation Notes If a classroom is empty or is not the

subject/teacher on your schedule, make a note and notify the team leader as soon as possible. Do not reschedule on your own.

Do not improvise with your schedule; do not observe any classes that are not on your schedule. For example, you may notice that you are next door to a classroom that you are scheduled to observe later; do not go ahead and observe “while you are in the area.”

Extended Learning TimeNote the answers to the following questions:

What were the students doing? Were they engaged?

What was the teacher doing? Were the interventions/activities

appropriate and effective? (Share these data during team discussion on day 2)

Focus Group Interviews Interviews/focus groups now include:

> Principal> Leadership Team> Teachers (randomly chosen)> Students> Parents

Questions broader (at the strand level) with “listen-fors”

Interview Notes Decide who will ask and who will script—if interviewing

with permanent GAPSS team member, let him/her ask the questions.

The interviewer’s role is now more as a facilitator. Try to get everyone to participate and not to let 1-2 dominate.

Do not ask interviewees to give their names-may ask teachers their subject area/grade level

Pace yourself with checkpoints at half and ¾ of the way through.

Do not provide advice, correctives, or suggestions. Record interviewees’ responses “as is.”

Other Data• Detailed review of other data, e.g., lesson

plans, CCRPI, TKES, sample units of study, school improvement plan

• Regional SIS data specialist will assist with compiling and reviewing specified “other data”

Norms Anonymity and confidentiality are the hallmarks of the GAPSS

process. Put cell phones on vibrate. Be on time for observations and interviews; follow the

observation schedule closely (to the minute). You will need a watch or cell phone.

Use the time when you are not scheduled for an observation or interview to review “other data” in the team room.

During the School Keys discussion, all must be present and focused on this task.

Do not “collect your own data” by informally talking with teachers, staff members, etc. to gain information.
