Yes, only individuals who have received training and support in evaluation skills may evaluate certificated employees. IC 20-28-11.5-5 (b) “An individual may evaluate a certificated employee only if the individual has received training and support in evaluation skills.”
The evaluator may be an administrator; or in some cases a teacher who has 1) clearly demonstrated a record of effective teaching over several years; (2) is approved by the principal as qualified to evaluate under the plan; and (3) conducts staff performance evaluations as a significant part of teacher’s responsibilities.
Additionally as allowed by IC 20-28-11.5-5 “The superintendent or equivalent authority, for a school corporation that does not have a superintendent, may provide for evaluations to be conducted by an external provider.”
Thank you for the thorough reply and supporting documentation. Standard For Success does provide these trainings during the summer months; dates will be posted soon at http://www.standardforsuccess.com
