4.  First Semester Teacher Evaluations:  All probationary teachers must have a formal observation (entire class) completed during the first semester.  Please make sure you have these completed  and submitted prior to Christmas break.  Also, if you have any teachers who you are putting on an improvement plan, this needs to be completed ASAP.  Make sure the improvement plan includes documentation, that if completed, provides you the documentation and confidence in extending their contract for the 2018-19 school year.
