Most teachers are reviewed once or twice a year in the beginning of their career and that may be it for their remaining time. However, we are all evaluating ourselves daily, as our our students. If you are not good at this job it is very trying and exhausting to keep control over 40+ kids at any given time. Trust me teachers who are incompetent are usually out of the career by choice in five years.

That being said see my previous post I agree that more reviews are necessary and the policies exist. It is simply to time consuming in comparison to the expectations on administration currently. What this panel suggests is a "witch hunt" designed to support their new policies and use scare tactics. It will be a blow to education that will reduce new ideas, push good teachers out of the profession and limit the educational options of your children.
My compensation is commensurate with my education and experience. I also work 84 hour weeks from May to October.
