Education in Wisconsin
Education Landscape
Wisconsin serves approximately 847,000 students across 421 school districts and more than 2,100 schools, supported by roughly 59,000 teachers. The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) mandates the Danielson Framework for Teaching as the state model for the Educator Effectiveness System. All evaluators must complete DPI-approved training on the 2022 Danielson FFT.
Observation Requirements
Under the Wisconsin Educator Effectiveness System, teachers receive a minimum of two formal observations per evaluation cycle, plus informal school visits or walkthroughs. Evidence for Domain 2 (Classroom Environment) and Domain 3 (Instruction) is collected during classroom observations, while Domains 1 and 4 are assessed through artifacts, conversations, and other evidence. All evaluators must complete training on the 2022 Danielson Framework for Teaching and pass annual calibration.
Framework Spotlight
Supported Frameworks in Wisconsin
Wisconsin mandates the Danielson Framework for Teaching as the foundation of its statewide Educator Effectiveness (EE) System. Starting in the 2024-25 school year, all districts in the state model must use the 2022 Danielson FFT. Observation Copilot is an Official Partner of the Danielson Group, providing native FFT alignment that maps your observation notes to domains, components, and rating levels automatically.
