Lewis is emerging tonight as the big proponent for professional evaluations of teachers.

One selling point for this evaluation, she says, is that HSTA will be involved in designing and approving it.

“The PATH evaluations that some of us remember and the current PEP-T evaluations were not something we had anything to do with,” she says.

But HSTA did in fact participate in work groups for both the PATH and PEP-T.
