IX.A. Paraprofessional Evaluation Tool

The administration and CCESP have been collaboratively creating a new evaluation instrument during the 2014-15 school year.

This evaluation instrument is structurally aligned with the evaluation used by teachers (CCEA). Once the board approves the new evaluation instrument, the administration will work with CCESP to align a bonus pay structure with this evaluation instrument as required by the current collective bargaining agreement.
