SB 1986

Teachers, Principals and School Personnel - As enacted, adds that if a teacher, for the current evaluation year, does not have access to individual growth data representative of student growth due to changes in academic standards or assessment design requiring standards validation or standards setting in the teacher's content or subject area, then 15 percent of the teacher's evaluation criteria must be comprised of student achievement data based on other measures of student achievement and 85 percent must be comprised of scores derived from the state board approved evaluation model for the qualitative portion of the teacher's evaluation unless using the current evaluation criteria results in a higher final evaluation score for the teacher. - Amends TCA Title 49, Chapter 1, Part 3.
