Bridging the gap between teacher evaluation and student achievement After nearly five decades of study around effective teaching and learning practices, Dr. Robert Marzano expands his acclaimed work by releasing the Art and Science of Teaching Causal Teacher Evaluation Model. The first of its kind, this teacher evaluation model identifies the direct cause and effect relationship between teaching practices and student achievement to help teachers and leaders make the most informed decisions that yield the greatest benefits for their students. With the Marzano Model, districts can transform your teacher evaluation system from an exercise in compliance into an effective engine of incremental growth, one that reflects parallel gains between teacher assessment and student performance.

"A study to be released this morning at the American Educational Research Association convention here in New Orleans presents an even earlier warning sign: A student who can't read on grade level by 3rd grade is four times less likely to graduate by age 19 than a child who does read proficiently by that time. Add poverty to the mix, and a student is 13 times less likely to graduate on time than his or her proficient, wealthier peer."

I believe every single child is entitled to an education that sets her up for success in careers, college, and life. I believe education cannot and should not be boiled down just to reading and math. I believe the arts and history, foreign languages, financial literacy, physical education, and after school enrichment are as important as advanced math and science classes. Those are essentials, not luxuries. I believe that all students must be held to high expectations for learning, no matter their zip code, race or ethnicity, disability, or whether they are still learning English. I believe that states should always choose those standards, as they always have, and that those standards should align clearly and honestly with what young people will need to know for success in school, in college, and in life.

I believe that every single child deserves the opportunity for a strong start in life through high-quality preschool, and expanding those opportunities must be part of ESEA. I believe that every family, and every community, deserves to know that schools are making a priority of the progress of all children, including those from low-income areas, racial and ethnic minorities, those with disabilities, those learning English, and others who all too often, historically, have been marginalized, and underserved, and undereducated. And I believe they deserve to know that if students in those groups actually fall behind, that schools will take action to improve. I believe that no student deserves to be cheated out of an education by being stuck in a school that fails too many of its students, year after year after year. I believe that schools must be a pipeline to opportunity, not to prison.

I believe all educators and principals need and deserve excellent preparation, support and opportunities for growth that go far beyond what exists in most places today. And I’m pleased to say, you’ll hear more about this when President Obama releases his budget. I believe teachers and principals deserve to be paid in a way that reflects the importance of the work they do – regardless of the tax base of their surrounding community. I believe teachers and schools need greater resources and funds. This year, President Obama's Budget will include $2.7 billion for increased spending on ESEA programs, including $1 billion additional just for Title I. And we will fight to make sure Congress provides more resources as part of any effort to rewrite ESEA. I believe those in low-income schools should have resources and support comparable to that in other schools. Our children and teachers, who need and deserve the most, cannot continue to receive the least. I believe that all teachers deserve fair, genuinely helpful systems for evaluation and professional growth that identify excellence and take into account student learning growth.

I believe parents, and teachers, and students have both the right and the absolute need to know how much progress all students are making each year towards college- and career-readiness. The reality of unexpected, crushing disappointments, about the actual lack of college preparedness cannot continue to happen to hard working 16- and 17-year olds – it is not fair to them, and it is simply too late. Those days must be over.
