FORMAL EVALUATION
PROCESS
As a result of an "Evaluation Form – Faculty Survey", interpretation and recommendations by an ASSESSMENT Committee, and approved by Mr. Bolcar , Superintendent of Schools, the following will serve as guidelines:
TENURED TEACHERS – A minimum of two formal evaluations will be conducted on each tenured teacher. (The maximum number which may be conducted is up to the discretion of the supervisor and/or the administration).
Standard Evaluation Form shall be "NARRATIVE" or "FOCUSED". (In the event that a consensus cannot be achieved by the teacher and the supervisor, the supervisor shall select the form).
Specialized
Evaluation Forms
"TEAM EVALUATION" – The teacher or supervisor may select this option. This meets the minimum requirement.
. . . . . . . In addition to meeting the minimum requirement, the following may be
considered:
�PROJECT� EVALUATION (resulting in program improvement)
�INTERDEPARTMENTAL� EVALUATION. A teacher may request that a supervisor other than his/her own, conduct an evaluation. (Logic: a fresh perspective, perhaps new ideas).
NON-TENURED TEACHERS - A minimum of three (3) formal evaluations will be conducted on
each non-tenured teacher. (The maximum number which may be conducted is up to the discretion of the supervisor and/or the administration).
NOTE: A teacher may request to observe another teacher. The department supervisor will
coordinate w\the logistics, with the approval of all parties involved. (This �teacher
observing teacher� approach is encouraged by the administrative).
