AN ACT concerning education.
|
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
represented in the General Assembly:
|
Section 5. The School Code is amended by adding Section |
24A-5.5 as follows:
|
(105 ILCS 5/24A-5.5 new) |
Sec. 24A-5.5. Local appeal process for unsatisfactory |
ratings. Beginning with the first school year following the |
effective date of this amendatory Act of the 101st General |
Assembly, each school district shall, in good faith cooperation |
with its teachers or, if applicable, through good faith |
bargaining with the exclusive bargaining representative of its |
teachers, develop and implement an appeals process for |
"unsatisfactory" ratings under Section 24A-5 that includes, |
but is not limited to, an assessment of the original rating by |
a panel of qualified evaluators agreed to by the joint |
committee referred to in subsection (b) of Section 24A-4 that |
has the power to revoke the "unsatisfactory" rating it deems to |
be erroneous. The joint committee shall determine the criteria |
for successful appeals; however, the issuance of a rating to |
replace an "unsatisfactory" rating must be determined through |
bargaining between the exclusive bargaining representative, if |
any, and the school district.
