Collective Bargaining Under the Tax Cap

APPR - Where to Now?

Wat if the commissioner of education rejects a district's APPR plan, or a district fails to submit one?  Is your district prepared to address both the legal and practical issues related to the making of employment decisions, professional development, improvement plans, evaluator training, inter-rater reliability, and more?  Explore the answer to these questions and other lingering concerns.
