Professional Standards Board
Who is on the Professional Standards Board?
You can find the list of people (the plurality of whom are teachers); their
email addresses; when and where the PBS meets; what the agenda is for their upcoming
meeting, and more -
at their web site. Their meetings
are open to the public and they welcome your opinions on matters relating to teacher
and administrator licensing, recertification, induction, mentoring, evaluation and
on-going professional development.
They must report quarterly to the
Governor, the State Board of Education and the General Assembly about their work.
Their scope has been limited to licensure, certification and professional development.
DoE now has regulatory authority for teacher retention, recruitment, preparation
as well as evaluation.
