Sweeping new regulations governing teacher evaluations will dramatically alter teacher performance reviews.  What are the far reaching consequences for “grading” our teachers?

Administrators, teachers, parents and other concerned citizens are invited to join us for this important forum; audience comments and questions welcome.
