Updates & Transition Resources
Beginning in the 2025-26 school year, DPI will no longer contract with Frontline Education or another vendor for an educator effectiveness management platform for state model districts and independent charters.
State model districts and charters have new record-keeping options available, which include:
- free downloadable forms from DPI in Google and Microsoft formats. Use of the DPI-provided options can ensure that local record-keeping maintains the state-required documentation elements for compliance. Supports for use include:
- Alignment of EE Processes & Forms
Outlines the forms and their documentation elements that support the EE required processes. - How to Complete & Use DPI EE Forms
Explains tips for using the spreadsheet format as well as the prompts and reported information on each sheet. - How to Customize DPI Downloadable EE Files
Guidance on customizing the files to align with local processes while maintaining required documentation elements. - Suggestions for EE File Management
Possible options for downloading, storing, and managing EE files locally, including utilizing Google files in Google Classroom. - This Help Center will transform into supports for the DPI downloadable files, with articles and resources, and maintain the request and inquiry submission through the button at the top of the pages.
- Alignment of EE Processes & Forms
- direct contract with Frontline Education for continued services or with another evaluation software vendor. Review the information and guidance on vendors with permissions to use the required rubrics.
To contract directly with Frontline for continued services, contact Safiya Mosley of Frontline at smosley@frontlineed.com.
If not continuing services with Frontline Education:
- All local staff will lose access to the Employee Evaluation Management (EEM) platform on June 30, 2025.
- Local administrators AND individual users should download all forms that contain EE Documentation Elements for local and personal record-keeping. The Archived Forms Export Tool in the platform can provide mass downloads of PDF copies. These downloads can be quite large. Districts are encouraged to complete mass downloads in intervals and not all at once.
- It is recommended that local administrators finalize this year's forms in the platform (using the rollover process) before downloading the files for local storage. The finalization date will appear at the top of each form and signify that the form was completed and reviewed.
