Performance Evaluation National Board Certified Teacher

The bill allows a local board of education or board of cooperative services that adopts its own local licensed personnel evaluation system to exempt national board certified teachers from the annual requirements of such system for a period not to exceed 3 years. If a local board of education or board of cooperative services decides to provide such an exemption, the teacher must retain the rating he or she received on his or her most recent evaluation for the 3-year exemption period. A teacher who has been exempt from evaluations pursuant to this bill may request a new evaluation prior to the end of the 3-year exemption period. The rating from such a new evaluation will become the teacher's new performance evaluation rating.
