What Does an
Observation Consist
of?

Pre-Observation Conference: Opportunity for the

teacher and the observer to discuss the lesson and
for the teacher to request the observer to pay close
attention to any particular area of the lesson.
Observation: During the observation the observer
gathered evidence to provide a rating for the teacher
on pre identified areas.
Post-Observation Conference: The observer
provides teacher with feedback. The observer might
provide additional resources to support the teacher in
the improvement of instructional practices.

When Do I Become
Tenured?!
Year 1: Mentorship, summative does NOT

count toward tenure

Mentors observe the novice teacher, share feedback,

model efective teaching practices, and provide

confidential support

Years 2, 3, 4: Receive efective or

highly efective rating at least two of

these three years
On the first day of your 5th year, you will be
granted tenure

While this may seem overwhelming,

we are in this together! You will be
guided through each step of this
process.

If you have any questions,

comments, or concerns, please do
not hesitate to ask!
