Bill summary
Directs the State Board of Education (Board) to eliminate the use of the NC Final Exam and the analysis of student work process to assess teacher performance and professional growth as part of the North Carolina Teacher Evaluation System. Instead, directs the Board to adopt a policy to require that local school administrative units assess teacher performance and professional growth by using: (1) for teachers who teach at least 60% of their time in an End-of-Grade or End-of-Course tested subject, End-of-Course and End-of-Course assessments to determine student growth values or (2) for all other teachers, school-wide growth values.
Requires the Board and the Department of Public Instruction to reflect these requirements in the consolidated State plan to be submitted to the US Department of Education in accordance with 20 USC 6301, et seq., as amended.
Applies beginning with the 2017-18 school year.
