Common use of Pre-Evaluation Conference Clause in Contracts

Pre-Evaluation Conference. The unit member being evaluated, and the evaluator shall meet to discuss: i. The District will choose two California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP’s) as District-wide standards of focus to be rated. The unit member will choose one additional California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP’s) focus to be rated. As noted in a. iii. above, probationary (non-tenured) teachers will be evaluated on all California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP’s). For those unit members on year three of the 5-year evaluation cycle the standard which addresses lesson planning, currently Standard IV of the evaluation rubric, may not be chosen as the additional standard for evaluation as lesson planning is evaluated through pre-conference which does not take place with an informal evaluation. ii. Objectives to be achieved during the evaluation period. iii. Techniques for assessing whether those objectives and standards of performance have been achieved which techniques may include, but are not necessarily limited to, formal evaluations and informal observations, anecdotal records, conferences and the completion of reports by the evaluatee relating to objectives and standards of performance; iv. A tentative schedule of evaluations, conferences, and a final evaluation date. v. The unit member is responsible to identify, develop and write acceptable performance objectives which shall be discussed during the conference with the evaluator. Approval of written objectives does not prohibit the administrator from conducting evaluations, observations, or final evaluation assessments on the selected standards for the given year.
