(e-mail from Rocco Montesano)
I would like to clarify the issue of using data in your Professional Growth Plan (PGP). If you have included the use of data in your PGP, please understand that you will not be evaluated on whether or not you ACHIEVED the statistical goal you established. Your supervisor should only consider the PROCESS that you took in trying to reach the statstical goal you set.
Keep this mind as you work on your PGP and certainly at the end of the year when your supervisior comments on your PGP. Please contact me or your Building President whenever you have questions or concerns about your PGP.

E-mail from committee co-chair Rocco Montesano explaining key terms of the APPR process.

The Annual Professional Performance Review Committee has proposed a revision of the District's process for dealing with professionals whose evaluation raises concerns. We have used different terms in order to make clear that it includes all professionals. It creates a process that provides guidance in a collaborative way, yet does lead to serious consequences for a professional who does not meet established standards as described in the APPR plan (based on Charlotte Danielson). Please note that TA Reps on this committee had a strong voice in helping create this process. NYSUT recommendations form the core of the ideas in the Targeted Guidance Plan for Tenured Professionals.
The Portfolio process for non tenured professional, the APPR process for tenured professionals and the Targeted Guidance Plan for Tenured Professionals will be presented in large group and small group venues next year. Staff development is being planned for all those not familiar with Charlotte Danielson. Please review and respond to Rocco Montesano as soon as possible.
Some teachers requested to review the APPR process (created by the Committee) that Rocco sent out a few months ago. This is the process that will be used to decide if a tenured professional needs a Targeted Guidance Plan.
