Educator Evaluation and Testing Reform
PAGE Position Statement and Analysis 
of Evaluation and Testing Bills

PAGE actively supports and is engaged in the movement of two educator evaluation and testing bills moving in the Senate. SB 355 and SB 364 each tackle these issues of critical importance to PAGE members. The bills address the issues in different ways and SB 355 includes protections for opting out of testing for students and parents.

Go HERE for PAGE's position statement and analysis in document form, and HERE for the information on the "I Promise" campaign website. Read up on these bills and then call your legislators to encourage their support of educators and students. PAGE member calls to legislators have helped move these reforms to the forefront of this year's session.

These bills address reforms that are the top issues of PAGE's 2016 Legislative Priorities.
