The next regularly scheduled Board of Education meeting is tonight, March 16th at 7 PM. The meeting will be held in person at Station Middle School. Click here to view the agenda.
The meeting will include a public hearing at 7:45 regarding, “The Honorable Dismissal of Probationary Teachers pursuant to Section 24.12 of the Illinois School Code.”
The number of people in the room will be limited to 50, as suburban Cook County and Lake County are in Phase 4 under the State’s Restore Illinois Plan. The livestream of all meetings are viewable via the Board’s YouTube channel.
These dismissals are based on performance evaluation ratings. I wonder how many in the general tax paying body and parents of students are aware of how our teachers in D220 are rated. I bet many would be surprised to learn the actual evaluation system. The curriculum and evaluation systems should be made available to the public on D220s website. Transparency.
