Teacher and principal evaluations (“Annual Professional Performance Review”; “APPR”) are an important tool to help support educator growth and development.

Operating Principles:

The district will:

• continue to observe and evaluate teachers consistent with the negotiated and State approved APPR plan in all instructional models (onsite, hybrid, remote) pursuant to Education Law 3012-d.

• continue to evaluate principals consistent with the negotiated and State approved APPR plan in all instructional models (onsite, hybrid, remote) pursuant to Education Law 3012-d.

• ensure that all teachers and administrators hold a valid and appropriate certificate for their assignment.
