What should boards do with parent/student survey materials that they have on file from the previous Teacher Performance Appraisal (TPA) process?
Section 277.42 of the Education Act requires that copies of all documents relied on in conducting a TPA must be retained by boards for a period of at least six years from the date of the summative report of the performance appraisal to which the record relates. This includes parent or student surveys that formed part of a performance appraisal. Section 277.43 sets out the details of how and when that information is to be shared between boards.
