Evaluatee Guide
As an evaluatee — a teacher or principal being evaluated — you participate in your annual evaluation by providing evidence of your practice and engaging with feedback from your evaluator.
:::info Principals Wear Two Hats If you're a principal, you're an evaluatee here (your own evaluation, conducted by a District Principal Evaluator) and an evaluator of your teachers. See the Principal Guide for how the two fit together. :::
Your Responsibilities

Key Concepts
Before diving in, understand these concepts that affect your experience:
How Evidence Works
Your evaluation is built on evidence collected throughout the year. See Evidence Collection to understand what counts and how it's organized.
Comprehensive vs. Focused
Your evaluation is either Comprehensive (all 8 criteria) or Focused (one criterion you select). See Understanding Your Evaluation for how this affects your year.
