HB 1291

Under current law, a local board of education's (local board) or board of cooperative services' (BOCES) licensed personnel employment performance system must ensure that nonprobationary teachers receive one evaluation resulting in a written evaluation report in each academic year. The bill requires that nonprobationary teachers receive one evaluation resulting in a written evaluation report at least once every 3 academic years; except that, if a nonprobationary teacher receives a less than effective rating, the local board or BOCES may require that the nonprobationary teacher receive one evaluation that results in a written evaluation report in the next academic year. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
