Important Note:

According to Act 13, the Performance Goal template is now available for Principals and Supervisors of Special Education to complete. Due to these changes, the Principal SLO within PAETEP is now read-only. Supervisors can view previously completed Principal SLOs, but they cannot edit or create new ones.

The Pennsylvania Department of Education's Principal Student Learning Objectives (SLO) was part of the state's Educator Effectiveness System. These SLOs were academic targets set by principals to measure student growth and achievement over a specific period. The process involves setting specific, measurable goals based on student performance data, aligning instruction with these goals, and using the results to inform future teaching strategies. 

Act 13 introduced a new template, which has now replaced this evaluation tool. See Performance Goal (PG), for more information.
