APPR Information
The State Education Department of New York has implemented a new Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) System, the components of which must be developed and/or negotiated, as required by law, between the school district and the teachers’ association.
The BTF worked with the BPS to revise the teacher evaluation system so it not only aligns with the state law, but it’s also fairer and reduces the impact of standardized tests. We’re proud that we’ve worked toward creating more authentic student learning measures.
