New Assignment. An educator with PTS shall be considered in a new assignment when teaching under a different license, or in a different subject area, grade-level, or school. The parties acknowledge that it may take some time for an educator with PTS to become proficient in a new assignment (e.g., a change in subject area, grade level, or school). Therefore, the Primary Evaluator may assign a Developing Plan to a PTS educator in a new assignment at the educator’s request or at the Primary Evaluator’s discretion. Each Developing Plan for PTS educators in new assignments will be for one school year. If the educator receives an overall rating of proficient or higher upon the Summative Evaluation at the end of the school year, the educator may begin a Self- Directed Growth Plan for the next school year. If the overall summative rating is below proficient, the Primary Evaluator and Educator may discuss the possibility of a more appropriate assignment, and a different assignment that matches the educator’s certification may be offered. The Primary Evaluator shall place the educator on a plan appropriate to such educator’s rating on his/her Summative Evaluation.
