      May 20, 2013

      According to Richard Bozza, Executive Director of the New Jersey Association of School Administrators, people should expect a temporary dip in student performance as the bar is raised.

      He said he's "cautious and concerned" about the plan, especially with a number of changes transforming state education. "One of my largest concerns is going to be the ability, particularly of school principals, to get all this work done because most of it falls on their shoulders," he said.

    • Christie administration unveils details of teacher evaluation proposal

       

      Richard Bozza, executive director of the New Jersey Association of School Administrators, echoed concerns about technical flaws in tying adults’ ratings to children’s test data. Fifty percent of a principal’s evaluation would be tied to various measures of student achievement; the rest would rely largely on a superintendent’s observations of leadership.

      “They’re trying to serve the cake before it’s baked,” Bozza said.

      “The school remains a great function for the state and has made a really big difference in those children’s lives,” Bozza said. “But this is long overdue. It doesn’t mean the program should have to leave, but maybe some other uses could be considered.”

      Bozza added that whenever other options are discussed, there was often pushback from the families of current and former students.

      “But even back then, they were coming around in seeing that it is compatible with ultimately saving the school,” Bozza said.
