Prohibits State Board of Education from requiring student growth objectives to evaluate teachers.
This bill prohibits New Jersey's State Board of Education from requiring teachers to use "student growth objectives" (assessments measuring student progress) in their annual evaluations. Currently, these objectives account for 15-50% of a teacher's evaluation score under existing rules. The bill would remove this requirement entirely, meaning the State Board could no longer mandate such assessments as part of teacher evaluations. It directly affects all public school teachers in New Jersey by changing how their performance is measured. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
