Jerome, Idaho, School District Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Professional Development, Janet Avery said, “We see Teacher Vitae as the vehicle to calibrate teacher observations and evaluations throughout the district. Teachers will be able to not only provide evidence of their great instructional practices but will be able to reflect upon that evidence. Reflection takes educators deeper into their craft, and in the end, produces even better teachers.
