Lesson Plans

Teacher rights in regard to lesson plans are outlined below:

• All teachers prepare lesson plans for their own use.
• Teachers must provide lesson plans for a substitute teacher's use.
• The principal may not require a faculty to submit lesson plans weekly nor on any other periodic basis.
• The principal may check the lesson plans of all teachers occasionally.
• The content of the lesson plan is determined by the teacher, except in the two situations:
  • During the first period of employment, a principal should review the new teacher's lesson plans to determine if he/she requires assistance.
  • If the principal has evidence that a teacher is not planning satisfactorily, the principal may require submission of lesson plans for periodic inspection and approval.
