Teacher Evaluation Plan and Handbook of Procedure Appendix G-
Applies to teachers who received an Unsatisfactory evaluation in
the 2011-2012 school year or teachers currently in the remediation
process Start of script Remediation Process For Unsatisfactory
Tenured Teachers From Article 39-5 of the Agreement Whenever, in
the opinion of the principal, after personal observation in the
classroom on at least two (2)different school days, unless the
tenured teacher has no classroom duties, the service of a tenured
teacher is considered unsatisfactory, the principal of the school
shall notify the tenured teacher in writing, using the Form E3,
Evaluation of Unsatisfactory Service of a Tenured Teacher. This
notice, which is given to the tenured teacher in a conference at a
place ensuring privacy, state the reasons for the unsatisfactory
rating and advises the tenured teacher that the tenured teacher is
required to participate in a remediation plan. Within three (3)
school days after the issuance of Form E3, the principal shall
select a qualified potential consulting teacher from the
appropriate district roster, supplied by the Union. The principal,
consulting teacher, and teacher under remediation shall meet within
seven (7) school days to develop a remediation plan to correct the
area(s) identified as unsatisfactory. This plan may include the
participation of other personnel to assist in correcting areas
identified as unsatisfactory. This remediation plan shall become
effective no later than thirty (30) calendar days after a notice of
unsatisfactory service is issued to the teacher.
Slide 26
Teacher Evaluation Plan and Handbook of Procedure (cont.) The
consulting teacher shall be selected from a roster submitted by the
Chicago Teachers Union. The qualified consulting teacher shall be
one who has received a superior or excellent rating on his or her
most recent evaluation, has a minimum of five years teaching
experience and has knowledge relevant to the teaching
area/assignment of the teacher under remediation. The participation
of the consulting teacher shall be voluntary. The consulting
teacher shall provide advice to the teacher under remediation on
how to improve teaching area/assignment skills and how to
successfully complete the remediation plan. The consulting teacher
does not participate in the evaluation of the teacher under
remediation, but shall participate in conferences with the
principal or other appropriate qualified administrators. The
remediation plan shall consist of 90 days. At the end of the
remediation period, an evaluation shall be conducted by the
principal or other appropriate qualified administrator. After the
90-day remediation period (105 ILCS 5/24A-5), the principal, in
consultation with the consulting teacher, shall determine if
sufficient improvement has taken place to justify a satisfactory or
better rating. If sufficient improvement has not taken place, the
teacher shall be dismissed in accordance with (105 ILCS 5/24A-5),
of the School Code of Illinois. If the teacher completed the
remediation period with a satisfactory or better rating, the
teacher shall be subject to the one-year intensive review schedule
of monthly evaluations for the first six months and quarterly
evaluations for the next six months (105 ILCS 5/24A-5). Thereafter,
the teacher shall be reinstated to a schedule of annual
(satisfactory rating) or biennial (superior or excellent rating)
evaluations.

Agreement A probationary appointed teachers contract is subject to

appointed teacher in a teaching situation and confer with the
probationary appointed teacher in a place ensuring privacy to offer
assistance for improving the probationary appointed teachers
service. If the principal determines that the work of the

Teacher Evaluation Plan and Handbook of Procedure (cont.) For
Unsatisfactory Temporarily Assigned Teachers Whenever, in the
opinion of the principal, the service of a temporary assigned
teacher is considered unsatisfactory, the principal of the school
notifies the teacher, in writing, using the Unsatisfactory
Temporarily Assigned Teacher Notice form. This notice, which is
given to the teacher in a conference at a place ensuring privacy,
states the reasons for the unsatisfactory rating and offers
suggestions and assistance to the teacher for improving the
teachers services. Following the issuance of the Unsatisfactory
Assigned Teacher Notice, the principal visits the teacher once and
holds a post conference with said teacher at a place ensuring
privacy. Following the conference, written suggestions are made to
the teacher for improving the teachers services. The principal
shall give the teacher a written memo which will verify that the
teacher was visited and that a conference as described above was
held. Upon completion of the fifteen (15) school day period after
the issuance of the Unsatisfactory Temporarily Assigned Teacher
Notice, if the services of the teacher continue to be
unsatisfactory, the principal shall present the Final
Unsatisfactory Notice to the teacher in a conference at a place
ensuring privacy. Human Resources Employee Relations then calls a
conference in which the following persons are included: the
teacher, a representative from the Chicago Teachers Union or a
representative of the teachers choice, and a representative from
