§ 1730 County Supervision Of Instruction

Key Takeaways

  • •The county school boss can hire supervisors to help small elementary schools.
  • •These supervisors help schools that don’t have enough people checking on teaching.
  • •Small schools are those with fewer than 901 kids (elementary) or 1,501 kids (unified schools).
  • •The county board of education must agree before hiring these supervisors.

Example

A small elementary school with only 500 students is struggling because no one is checking if teachers are doing a good job.

The county school boss can hire a supervisor to visit the school and help make sure teaching is going well, but only if the county board says it’s okay.
