Welcome Back!
Welcome back, Noble’s wonderful faculty and staff, to what will surely be an exciting school year for us all. The first day of classes is almost upon us, but after last week’s PD, I am confident that teachers are ready, willing, and able for a rigorous instructional program from Day One.

With all the debate about “value-added analysis,” it is very important that LAUSD educators understand our role and how we will be evaluated.

You will note that test scores are to be used as only one of multiple measures in the evaluation of teacher and administrator effectiveness.
