The Utah State Board of Education has adopted a plan for Educator Effectiveness. The Effective Educator Standards are a description of highly effective teaching and leading strategies as adopted by the Utah State Board of Education. The standards provide a resource for educators throughout the state of Utah to analyze and prioritize expectations for high quality instruction and leadership. Certified employees will complete a self-assessment each year to help familiarize them with the evaluation tool and to help them set goals with a supervisor as part of a professional growth plan. All certified staff members will be evaluated each year as part of a formative or summative process.
