Tenure Teachers. (a) Any employee who is granted tenure by the Milan Board of Education shall have seniority from their last date of hire.
Tenure Teachers. 3. In reaching a decision within categories, a, b, and c in 2, above, the following criteria will be followed in the order listed:
Tenure Teachers. Professional evaluation of the work of tenure teachers shall be accomplished in writing under the following circumstances:
Tenure Teachers. The first observation will take place between the end of the third week of school and the beginning of the week prior to the start of winter break. The second observation will take place between the first week after winter break and May 1st. The final evaluation conference will take place by May 1. If a tenure teacher’s overall evaluation is unsatisfactory, then an Individualized Development Plan (IDP) will be developed at the final evaluation conference. The IDP will be reviewed and revised at the first post-observation conference and at the final evaluation conference at the end of the year. This process will continue until the teacher has a satisfactory evaluation. The above cited evaluation periods will be modified as warranted and appropriate, by the mutual agreement of the Board and Association, for probationary teachers employed for less than a full school year.
Tenure Teachers. Written explanation shall be given for a rating of "needs improvement" in the evaluation and must relate to the educational process and working relationships in the educational process. When line item ratings less than "satisfactory” are given, suggestions to improve shall be listed on the evaluation, with sources of possible assistance included. When a rating of “unsatisfactory” is given, an Individual Development Plan (IDP) shall be developed by the evaluator in consultation with the teacher. An Individual Development Plan is a document recommending courses of action to be taken when an evaluator determines it necessary or when a teacher who has been rated less than “satisfactory” and has not improved in an acceptable manner. An IDP will be written only after an observation. An IDP may be assigned by the administrator for up to six months. At the end of each six-month period, the administrator may extend the plan for another period of six months. The procedure may be repeated at the administrator's option. Completion of recommended courses of action shall evidence intent to improve but may not be construed to mean that the teacher has successfully remedied the unacceptable performance. Teachers placed on an IDP shall meet with the administrator writing the plan before said plan is implemented. In a year in which a teacher is evaluated at least two (2) observations per year of a teacher's work in the classroom shall take place for a minimum of twenty-five (25) minutes during a regularly scheduled class period. The teacher may request and have an additional observation.
Tenure Teachers. Tenure teachers shall be evaluated at least once every three- (3) years prior to May 1st. The evaluation will be based upon a minimum of two (2) classroom observations. A personal interview will be held with each tenure teacher within five (5) school days following an observation, except by mutual agreement in writing; the time may be extended to ten (10) days. If a tenured teacher receives a less than satisfactory performance evaluation, the district will provide the teacher with an Individualized Development Plan for the next school year. The current (April 20, 1999) Classroom Observation and Teacher Summative Performance Evaluation forms and Ground Rules for Teacher Evaluation will be used by the administration. These documents shall be attached to the Master Agreement as Appendix A.
Tenure Teachers. 1. All members of the bargaining unit will be covered by the Michigan Teacher Tenure Act as amended. A yearly evaluation of tenure teachers is not mandatory. However, the administration shall have the authority to conduct such yearly evaluations as it deems necessary. Formal evaluations of a tenure teacher will be completed no later than two (2) weeks after April 1, unless mutually agreed upon by the teacher and the administrator.
Tenure Teachers. Teachers on tenure shall be granted fifteen (15) days at full pay during any school year. The unused sick days may be accumulated without limit.
Tenure Teachers. After completing the first ten (10) days of instruction in any school year, a tenure teacher will be entitled to a maximum of five (5) personal business days per school year.
Tenure Teachers. Tenure teachers will be provided with a teacher evaluation at least once (1) every three
