With the passage of the Race to the Top legislation last year, Michigan lawmakers enacted a requirement that Michigan schools implement a performance evaluation system. Further, they required that schools use this system, at a minimum, to inform decisions regarding teacher effectiveness, promotion, retention, professional development and tenure.
MASA has received numerous questions about this new requirement. In response, we have compiled the following resources to help answer your questions and assist you in designing and implementing a performance evaluation system. Check back often; we will add to these resources as new tools become available. We welcome your submissions as well. Send ideas and links to bbiladeau@gomasa.org.
