    Statement From Senate Democratic Conference Leader Andrea


    Stewart-Cousins
    Rushing to implement a new teacher evaluation system would be misguided. Weve been down
    this road before and weve seen where faulty and fast implementation of poorly conceived
    education changes leads. Demonizing teachers, over-testing students and rushing major reforms
    will not improve our education system, it will only cause more problems. Delaying the
    implementation of this new teacher evaluation system is the minimum step that should be taken.
    BACKGROUND
