The Board of Regents has asked the New York State Education Department (NYSED) to host a Learning Summit on teacher and principal evaluation. The event will be webcast live from the Carole Huxley Theater in the New York State Museum on Thursday, May 7. Invited participants include statewide parent, teacher, principal, superintendent, and school board member organizations, as well as practitioners and experts in the fields of education, economics, and psychometrics. These stakeholders and experts will provide recommendations to NYSED and the Board in the areas required by the new statute to be addressed through Commissioner's Regulations, including, but not limited to:
  • Scoring ranges for the subcomponents of the Student Performance and Observation categories;
  • Weights among the subcomponents of the Student Performance and Observation categories;
  • Parameters for appropriate student growth targets for subcomponents of Student Performance category;
  • Parameters for optional locally-selected State-designed supplemental assessments;
  • Minimum number of annual observations, including frequency, duration, and any other parameters;
  • Observation rubrics;
  • Alignment of the principal evaluation system to the new teacher evaluation system established in Education Law §3012-d;
  • Parameters of potential waivers from the general prohibition against assigning a student to a teacher rated Ineffective for two consecutive schools years;
  • The extent to which provisions in Education Law §3012-c should apply to the new evaluation system;

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
