Synopsis As Introduced
Urges the Performance Evaluation Advisory Council (PEAC) to initiate and complete a research study into the implementation of teacher evaluation in Illinois, gather feedback from stakeholders state-wide, review best practice from other states, and use that research to inform a set of policy recommendations that would address any identified challenges while preserving the core benefits of PERA's robust evaluation system with an interim report to the legislature by December 31, 2022 that includes a full timeline for report creation, including a plan for gathering stakeholder feedback, with a final report to be given to the legislature by December 31, 2023. Further urges the PEAC convene to initiate discussion on this charge by April 30, 2022.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything. Inserts new language that calls upon the Performance Evaluation Advisory Council (PEAC) to initiate and complete a research study performed by an educational research organization that is not a state agency to examine the implementation of teacher evaluation in Illinois, gather feedback from stakeholders state-wide, and review best practice from other states. Urges PEAC to use that research to inform a set of policy recommendations that would address any identified challenges while preserving the core benefits of PERA's robust evaluation system with an interim report urged to be delivered to the legislature by January 16, 2023 that includes a full timeline for report creation, including a plan for gathering stakeholder feedback, with a final report urged to be delivered to the legislature by June 30, 2024.
