The document discusses updates to Washington State's Teacher and Principal Evaluation Project (TPEP). It outlines a timeline for implementation of new evaluation models between 2010-2014. All districts will use the new models starting in 2013-14. The new models will include 4 tiers of evaluation (exemplary, proficient, basic, unsatisfactory). Teacher and principal evaluation criteria are aligned around areas like instruction, data use, culture and community. Student growth data from multiple measures must be incorporated. The document recommends various resources and task forces to help with training and implementation of the new evaluation systems.
