If the observation does not occur within the specified time, the evaluating administrator must confer with the teacher and reschedule, observing the same notice time frame. Observations shall not be conducted on the day immediately following any extended break in the instructional calendar (whether scheduled or unexpected). Observation conferences must be held after each of the two observations and timely feedback shall be given to the Member following each of the observations. The evaluating administrator may suggest a third observation and conference prior to completing the written evaluation in order to provide additional time for improvement, but this must be approved by the Member. The Member also has the right to request a third observation and conference. The Member and evaluating administrator shall review and sign a Member observation form for each observation. A copy of each observation form must be given to the Member and kept in the Member’s site personnel file.
