Abstract
As the title indicates, this field study deals with the process of constructing and implementing a teacher evaluation program in the Stonington School District. The process is broken down chronologically and covers a three year period. The paper attempts to describe the Stonington School District and point out the need for formal evaluation of teachers everywhere, but more specifically in Stonington.
The construction of the instrument by the Stonington teachers is outlined in a step-by-step process. In a series of Inservice Workshops, the district teachers discuss the validity and purpose of evaluation, plus what they felt were evidences of good teaching and, therefore, evaluation criteria.
The implementation of evaluation is covered in procedures, problems, and the annual review of the instrument. The conclusion indicates that the author feels the program has had a positive effect on the school district and hopes the quality of education will continue to improve.
