Teacher Evaluation System

TEACHNJ and AchieveNJ

The TEACHNJ Act is our state's tenure reform law that was passed in August, 2012. It defined, in broad strokes, the way the new evaluation system in New Jersey will look. Please click HERE to read the Teacher Effectiveness and Accountability for the Children of New Jersey (TEACHNJ) Act in its entirety.
AchieveNJ provides the details and support structures necessary to allow districts to implement the new legislation effectively. Please visit the NJDOE AchieveNJ website for answers to specific questions on the new regulations for both tenure and evaluation.
