SEASIDE HEIGHTS SCHOOL DISTRICT TEACHER EVALUATION SYSTEM, SY 2009-2010
Introduction
As part of
the federal requirements for states’ receiving funding under Phase 2 of the
State Fiscal Stabilization Funds Program, all school districts in New Jersey are
providing information to the public on the procedures they use to evaluate
teachers and principals. The information presented below will help you
understand Seaside Heights School District’s policies and procedures for
evaluating teachers and educational specialists such as librarians and
counselors.
Confidentiality
concerns: To protect the confidentiality of individual evaluations, districts
are not required to provide a district-level statistical summary of teacher
evaluation outcomes in those cases where there are fewer than 10 teachers in an
entire district. Similarly, districts are not required to provide a
school-level statistical summary of teacher evaluation outcomes if there are
fewer than 10 teachers in a school.
Section
1. Description of Teacher Evaluation System
A. As a result of having 22 teachers in our
building, which is our District, I am able to talk to each teacher everyday and
situations are handled immediately. I am
in each classroom just about everyday which allows me the opportunity to be
vigilant with regard to lesson plans and the lessons being implemented. The teachers often invite me in for special
lessons or projects and these opportunities are often reviewed during my
conferences with the teachers. Our
faculty has a Principal’s Advisory Committee and concerns within the building
are presented, which include discussions on each teacher doing their job
efficiently and effectively.
B. Tenured
teachers receive two formal evaluations and an Annual Review of Teacher
Performance at the end of the year. Non-tenured teachers receive three formal
evaluations and an Annual Review of Teacher performance at the end of the year.
