Teacher Evaluation In Fact Or Fiction
An article argues for reforming teacher evaluation in the school district. It notes current practices favor administrator decisions, with little weight given to parent or student input, and suggests self evaluation under principal supervision as a path to better teaching and lasting impact on students. It cites junior year student input as surprisingly accurate and mentions a local example at Miamitown Elementary. The piece ends with a Solomon quotation on wisdom and long life.
