Observation Guidelines. (A) A preconference will be held before any formal observation occurs. A formal observation of the teacher shall be scheduled in advance and be conducted for a minimum of thirty (30) minutes. The schedule shall be agreed upon by the teacher and his/her supervisor. However, this does not preclude other informal observations for evaluations. (1) A teacher shall have the option of asking not to be observed on a particular day. (2) A teacher may invite a peer evaluator, administrator, or other supervisor to participate in any of the scheduled observations and conferences, and provide personal or written feedback for the conference and/or report. (3) All formal evaluations and observations will be reviewed with the teacher in a post-evaluation conference at a mutually agreeable time, generally within five (5) working days of the formal observation. During the conference, the supervisor should review and make comments concerning the observation and include any constructive feedback regarding performance and a progress toward the goals. The teacher may request additional evaluations. (4) Teachers shall have a right to respond in writing to any evaluation or observation and have the response attached to the evaluation.
