Explanation of Program:
I, Tia Kleinkopf, am a participant this school year in an assessment to
certify experienced teachers as outstanding practitioners in teaching.
My participation in this assessment, which is being conducted by the
National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, is voluntary. The
primary purposes of this assessment are to enhance student learning and
encourage excellence in teaching. This project requires that short
videotapes of lessons taught in your child's class be submitted.
Although the videotapes involve both the teacher and various students,
the primary focus is on the teacher's instruction, not on the students
in the class. In the course of taping, your child may appear on the
videotape. Also, at times during the year, I may be asked to submit
samples of student work as evidence of teaching practice, and that work
may include some of your child's work. No student's last name will
appear on any materials that are submitted. NBPTS, at its sole
discretion, may use and distribute my videotape(s), my comments and my
classroom materials for assessment, professional development and
research purposes, and any other purpose NBPTS deems appropriate to
further the mission of the organization. The form below will be used to
document your permission for these activities.
