Welcome to Teacher/Principal Evaluation

During the Fifty-Fourth Legislature, First Regular Session, ARS § 15-537, ARS § 15-341, and ARS § 15-189.06 addressed changes to district and charter school principal and teacher evaluations. These changes no longer require LEAs to align their evaluations to the Arizona Framework for Measuring Educator Effectiveness and affect the use of quantitative data on student academic progress, emphasizing more flexibility and local control in decision making. The ADE 2019 Legislative Session Summary breaks down the new laws from this legislative session into a clear, concise format (changes to Educator Evaluations are on page 6). 

ADE will continue to update this page in order to provide the most current information and resources to assist all Local Education Agencies. Please follow this link to the most current version of the Arizona Revised Statutes, Title 15 – Education: Arizona Revised Statutes

Teacher Evaluation Affirmations Fri, Dec 16 2022

During the legislative session of 2022 the legislature repealed A.R.S. 15-952 as part of the K-12 Budget Reconciliation Bill that was signed by Governor Doug Ducey.  Due to this repeal an LEA will no longer be required to submit an Affirmation of Teacher Evaluations by February 1st to the Educator and School Excellence Unit.  The repeal of 15-592 though does not remove the evaluation requirements of the LEA for certificated teachers as required under A.R.S. 15-537.
