Ohio will implement the new teacher evaluation system. The new plan intends to increase reliance on the role of student test scores in teacher evaluations.
Teachers will receive one of four possible grades: accomplished, skilled, developing, and ineffective.
Only top-rated teachers will be exempt from annual evaluation. Each district’s board of education must decide how teacher’s evaluations will be used to determine promotions and terminations.
