EVALUATION AND TENURE Sample Clauses
The 'Evaluation and Tenure' clause outlines the processes and criteria by which an individual's performance is assessed and their continued employment or academic appointment is determined. Typically, this clause specifies the frequency and methods of evaluation, such as annual reviews or peer assessments, and details the standards or benchmarks that must be met for tenure consideration. Its core practical function is to ensure a transparent and structured approach to performance review, providing both the organization and the individual with clear expectations and procedures for advancement or continued engagement.
EVALUATION AND TENURE. Section A - Tenure
1. Teachers who have been transferred to a different tenure area shall not lose their tenure in the original area.
2. A four year probationary teacher shall be informed of action taken regarding tenure by the Board of Education not less than one hundred fifty (150) calendar days prior to the end of the probationary period.
3. Any teacher with a probationary period of fewer than four (4) years shall be informed of action taken by the Board of Education regarding tenure not fewer than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the probationary period.
Section B - Evaluation
1. Any instrument used for evaluation shall be considered as a constructive, evaluative tool.
2. The evaluation instrument is made part of this agreement as Exhibit 2. This evaluation instrument was implemented during the 2003-04 school year.

All other evaluation instruments utilized Exhibit 2 as the model, and these instruments were developed by both teachers and administrators for use beginning with the 2004-05 school year. The instruments were approved by the NCTA and the District and are made a part of this agreement by reference thereto.
3. Each person being evaluated shall see the completed evaluation before it is permanently filed with the Building Principal and Human Resources Department . There shall be space for the teacher’s signature and any comments that the teacher may wish to make thereon.
4. Formal evaluation shall take place during each of the probationary years in the District and thereafter at least every third year. By mutual agreement which shall not be subject to review and which shall be entered into no later than April 1 in any year between the evaluator and the teacher, a narrative form of evaluation may be substituted for the evaluation instrument on file.
5. Evaluation shall be conducted by the principal, hall principal, district director, department supervisor or other supervisory personnel not included in this bargaining unit. Teachers, however, will provide input.
6. Regulations of the Commissioner of Education require that a Teacher Improvement Plan (T.I.P.) be developed for any teacher whose overall performance is evaluated as unsatisfactory.
