NYSUT's Teacher Practice Rubric has been approved by the State Education Department as one of five options available to all school districts to meet the new APPR regulations.

Guided by national experts, the NYSUT Teacher Practice Rubric was designed and field-tested by practitioners from the five school/district labor management teams working on NYSUT's Innovation Initiative project for the last two years. NYSUT's rubric was informed by current research on teaching standards and teacher practice rubrics from the well-known Charlotte Danielson's Framework, the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, and others. Pilot locals in Albany, Marlboro, North Syracuse, Hempstead and Plattsburgh field-tested the model on a limited basis this spring with teachers who volunteered to try it out.

The NYSUT rubric is organized to assess teacher performance with the seven New York State Teaching Standards approved by the Regents earlier this year. It also addresses the state's four new ratings: highly effective, effective, developing and ineffective.

The NYSUT Teacher Practice Rubric is the only SED-approved option that is practitioner-led and developed through labor-management collaboration. "This is complex work and it needs to be done right," said NYSUT Vice President Maria Neira.
