There's an interesting article in The Chief on the process focusing on Brandeis HS which I have also put up on Norms Notes here.
I've received requests for details of the merit pay plan in terms of the future. I put this out to the ednotes chapter leader/delegate list and will put responses in the comments section of this post.
1. If there is no 55/25 pension does the plan go on hold for next year? Is there a deadline?
2. Does it have to be re-voted every year? When would that vote take place? In other words, would the vote for the 2009/10 school year take place in the fall of 08 like this vote did? or if a school voted for it is it set in stone for the future or until the DOE offers it to other schools?
3. Is there an intention to expand the program throughout the school system or will it be limited to around 250 schools?
Feel free to include details on what took place in your school.
How did you as a chapter leader address the issue? If you are not the CL how did your CL address it.
Anonymity guaranteed but if you don't mind it to be published say so.
