• Folsom Teacher Evaluation System
     
    The District Evaluation Advisory Committee, or DEAC, is required in all districts by the TEACHNJ Act through at least SY16-17. The Folsom DEAC selected Charlotte Danielson’s Framework for Teaching (2007 Edition), which was approved by the Folsom BOE. All instructional staff are evaluated annually according to the requirements of the TEACHNJ act, now known as AchieveNJ. For more information on AchieveNJ, visit the New Jersey Department of Education website at: http://www.nj.gov/education/AchieveNJ/
