PAR Consulting Teacher Orientation
SUHSD PAR Pathways
The SUHSD Peer Assistance and Review Program consists of two pathways,
one for Referred Participating Teachers and one for Voluntary Participating Teachers.
The requirements for both pathways are outlined below.
Though Referred PAR Teachers have priority, a Voluntary Teacher in the PAR Program may choose an available Consulting Teacher from the Consulting Teacher Pool. Consulting Teachers are allotted up to thirty hours per year to support each participating teacher. If interested, Voluntary Teachers may notify Emily Jimenez, PAR Program Manager, their site administrator or their SEA President. Once paired, the Voluntary Teacher and Consulting Teacher will sign their respective PAR Teacher Agreements and schedule time to meet. Voluntary Teachers and Consulting Teachers will work collaboratively on identifying a Professional Growth Goal based on the CSTPs, and they'll reflect on the action steps taken each quarter to meet this goal. A non-evaluative description of action steps is documented each quarter and submitted by the Consulting Teacher to the Quarterly Report Google Form located on the Submissions page. These reports are reviewed by the SUHSD Joint Governance Panel on a quarterly basis for purposes of program review and improvement. Voluntary Teachers may request a Triad Meeting with their Consulting Teacher and site administrator as well as Consulting Teacher observations, though these experiences are not required.
The PAR Program will be accepting Referred Teachers in the 2023-2024 school year. Information coming soon...
