Notice of Proposed Rule

Department:

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

Division:

State Board of Education

Chapter:

EDUCATOR STANDARDS, PREPARATION AND PERFORMANCE

Overview

RULE:

6A-5.0411

Calculations of Student Learning Growth for Use in School Personnel Evaluations

PURPOSE:

The rule will adopt and incorporate the updated “Florida VAM Course List,” which is the publication that lists the courses a teacher can teach to receive a value-added model (VAM) score. This change will align the “Florida VAM Course List,” with the “Course Code Directory and Instructional Personnel Assignments,” adopted by Rule 6A-1.09441, F.A.C.

SUMMARY:

The course code directory changed considerably when it was aligned to the new Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.) Standards. The “Florida VAM Course List” must be updated as a result of these changes. To align the VAM course list with the course code directory, we are proposing to remove courses from the VAM course list that are no longer in the course code directory; remove courses for students who do not take a statewide, standardized assessment included in the VAMs; add courses that are new for the 2021-22 school year; and update course names that have changed.
