Purpose of PAR Program. 18.2.1 The PAR Program utilizes exemplary teachers to assist permanent teachers in the areas of subject matter knowledge, teaching strategies, or teaching methods and instruction. 18.2.2 The extent of PAR’s assistance and review depends on whether the participating teacher is (1) a permanent teacher who volunteers or (2) a permanent teacher who is required to participate in the program as a result of receiving an unsatisfactory rating on the annual performance evaluation in the area of subject matter knowledge, teaching strategies, or teaching methods and instruction. 18.2.3 PAR assistance shall be provided through Consulting Teachers as described in Section 18.3 of this Article. This assistance shall not involve the participation in nor conduct of the annual evaluation of teachers as set forth in Article 12 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the District and the Association. 18.2.4 In the event that the State eliminates funding for the PAR program, Article 18 shall be suspended until and unless State funding is restored.
