I think teacher evaluation is seriously flawed and a school reform is necessary. One of the things I'd change is tenure, I'd get rid of it altogether, not try to change it. I'd redefine the reward system particularly for new teachers. It is common knowledge that it takes 3 - 5 year for a teacher to "find their voice", "hit their stride", "settle into a rhythm". Also, we need to keep learning our whole lives so we need to teach lifelong learning. Aaron DelSignore
