King Imposes NYC Teacher Evaluation System For Four Years

NYSED Commissioner/rookie teacher John King decreed that the APPR evaluation system he imposed upon NYC teachers today would run through 2016-2017.

That's four years.

Now all the details of the system haven't been posted yet because the geniuses at the NYSED are still pulling them out of their asses, but you have to wonder why it is NYC teachers get a system for four years when most districts have a system for two.

Bloomberg wanted the system in perpetuity, which he didn't get, but four years is a long time if you're working under an unworkable system.

As I said, the details are still pouring out, but a preliminary "assessment" says using the entire Danileson rubric for observations AND growth models for student portfolio work is a TON of work for principals and assistant principals.

Here's what someone noted on Twitter noted:


When the NYSED finally posts the whole system up, I'll be back with more.
