• Administrator Evaluations

  In November 2015, Public Act 173 was signed into law, providing important clarity to the ongoing policy discussions about the direction of educator administrator evaluations in Michigan.  Implementing Michigan’s educator evaluation law with fidelity is a key strategy in our efforts to see Michigan become a top ten education state within the next ten years. Administrator evaluations are implicitly linked to MDE’s Strategic Goal #3, to “develop, support, and sustain a high-quality, prepared, and collaborative education workforce.”
