[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone with more experience teaching in dcps answer this? I’ve been here for 10 years, so I’ve always had IMPACT. It seems that IMPACT is the reason for all the damn PD days- if you’re going to tell lots of teachers they’re ineffective or minimally effective based off this subjective evaluation system, there’s going to be a push from the union to make sure DCPS is providing PD to assist teachers in performing better on evaluations.

New to DCPS so I can't really answer your question, but coming from MCPS-Impact is absolutely insane. The fact there are trainings, PDs, websites, videos, etc...all for an observation....as the kids say...they are doing too much.

MCPS- you're evaluated twice the first three years...Second observation can be an SLO chat...Teachers choose the class/subject they want to be formally evaluated on. Then you receive tenure, when you're evaluated every 5 years. No one is stressed about observations. They aren't tied to money. No one is "rated". If DCPS wants to retain teachers, they'd be smart to get rid of this HIGHLY subjective system. I'll be going back to MCPS come the end of this year, because I'm not going to spend my time stressing about this nonsense. My entire school is stressed and this is all anyone talks about. [/quote]
