Tennessee HB1002 modifies teacher evaluations for pre-kindergarten teachers by prohibiting the use of the pre-k/kindergarten portfolio growth model.

Tennessee HB1002 amends the state's education code to change how pre-kindergarten teachers are evaluated. It prohibits the state board from basing evaluations on the pre-k/kindergarten portfolio growth model. Instead, local education agencies and public charter schools offering voluntary pre-kindergarten programs can allow teachers to use the results of a universal screener approved by the state board as an alternative growth model.
