Through the proposed Teacher Excellence Initiative, the district will assess student academic proficiency to help determine teacher effectiveness. That information will then be used to make assignment decisions, plan professional development, and improve performance.

The first Distinguished Teacher reviews will be conducted in April and May of 2015.

Seating for the meeting is limited. RSVP to tei@dallasisd.org.
