Continuing Evaluation Clause Samples

Continuing Evaluation. A. Representatives of the MEA and the PSA/USO shall, upon request of either party, hold meetings to evaluate the application and effectiveness of this Agreement. B. In the interest of the MEA and the PSA, these representatives may agree on exceptions to the Agreement, subject to ratification by the MEA and PSA Executive Committees. C. The principle which shall guide these representatives is the effective implementation of the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

Continuing Evaluation. When a within-grade increase has been withheld, a new determination may be made at any time thereafter when the supervisor determines that the employee has demonstrated sustained performance at an acceptable level of competence for at least 90 days. A new determination must be made no more than 52 calendar weeks following the original eligibility date for the within-grade increase, and for as long as the within-grade increase continues to be denied, determinations shall be made no longer than every 52 calendar weeks.

Continuing Evaluation. If ratings lower than satisfactory are assigned to any categories of responsibility, to any subcategories thereof, or in evaluation of any additional goals/objectives, the primary evaluator shall conduct continuing evaluation conferences prior to the end of each of the first, second, or third semesters following the school year in which the low ratings were assigned.

This continuing evaluation may address only those evaluation areas to which less than satisfactory ratings have been assigned. c. At each semester-end conference during the continuing evaluation, the primary evaluator shall provide a written assessment which shall be signed by the primary evaluator and MDSPA member and which shall be placed in the MDSPA member's personnel file. This written assessment may make use of the forms and format of the regular evaluation of school psychologist/BHS process or employ a simple narrative, at the mutual agreement of both the primary evaluator and MDSPA member. d. The MDSPA member shall have the right to submit written rebuttal to any evaluation rating or statement. Such rebuttal shall be submitted within ten
