Unsatisfactory Rating Appeal Process Sample Clauses

Unsatisfactory Rating Appeal Process. Teachers who receive a final overall summative rating of “Unsatisfactory” may appeal the evaluation rating by submitting written notice to the Superintendent or designee within seven (7) school days of the receipt of the final evaluation rating. The teacher’s notice must include, though not be limited to, a specific explanation of the basis for the appeal, evidence that has been collected through informal and formal observations, dates or elements not consistent with the timelines or processes established in the Evaluation plan. The teacher must also provide a copy of the notice to the teacher’s evaluator. Within seven (7) school days of receipt of the notice, the evaluator may submit documentation relied upon in the evaluation process to the Superintendent. The Superintendent shall submit all materials received to the appeal review panel. The PERA Joint Committee will determine the criteria for successful appeals. When an appeal is filed, the PERA Joint Committee will identify four (4) qualified evaluators, as defined by applicable statute, to serve on the appeal review panel. The appeal review panel shall be comprised of equal parts of Administrators and bargaining unit staff. In the event a teacher is rated unsatisfactory and files an appeal, neither the original evaluator nor the teacher impacted shall serve on the review panel for the individual’s appeal. The appeal review panel will convene to assess the unsatisfactory rating being appealed and determine whether the rating is erroneous based on the criteria developed by the PERA Joint Committee and the appeal materials submitted. For a rating deemed by the panel to be erroneous, the panel will have the power to revoke the “Unsatisfactory” rating. The appeal review panel will render a decision within ten (10) school days after receipt of the appeal. The panel retains the right to assign a new rating based on the criteria developed by the PERA Joint Committee. The pendency of an appeal does not affect the Board’s ability to take other actions permitted by law, including but not limiting to, non-renewal or dismissal.

  • How to Request an External Appeal If you remain dissatisfied with our medical appeal determination, you may request an external review by an outside review agency.

We may charge you a filing fee up to $25.00 per external appeal, not to exceed $75.00 per plan year.
