FWSU ANNOUNCEMENTS
FWSU LAUNCHES NEW TEACHER EVALUATION SYSTEM

On June 5th, the FWSU Board of Directors approved a new Teacher Evaluation System. The process to develop a new system began in the fall of 2012. After a full year of research and study, the FWSU Evaluation Committee (comprised of teachers, administrators, and a school board member) delivered its new evaluation document to the Board for approval. Implementation of the new framework will begin in the 2013/14 school year. Click here to review the new system and learn more about evaluation of all professional staff in our schools. Thanks to all of the members of the Evaluation Committee for their extensive efforts!
CHAMPLAIN VALLEY "VISION" CALENDAR PROPOSAL

Have you heard about the new proposed regional calendar for 2014/2015? Based on the VT Superintendent's Association (VSA) Education Quality Framework and the VT World-Class Education Agenda, the School Calendar 2.0 is a new way of looking at the school year. The proposed calendar preserves the current 175 student days, while building in blocks of time, known as "intersessions" that can be used for a variety of purposes for multiple stakeholders. Click here to learn more about the proposal and we encourage you to read these FAQ's.
