What is Roster Validation?
Roster Validation gives teachers the opportunity to: Document their responsibility for instructing specific students for
all or part of the year Correct errors in their rosters Provide additional information that is not tracked in City Schools'
Student Management System (SMS).
It ensures that each student's achievement is linked to the teacher or teachers who taught that student
This linkage is used in the district's new teacher evaluation system
