Walkthroughs
Walkthrough observations provide important feedback to support professional growth. All CSIU professional staff shall participate in no less than two "onstage" (aligned to domains 2 and 3) and two "offstage" (aligned to domains 1 and 4) walkthroughs per school year. Walkthroughs assessments will be conducted via the PA-ETEP system which allows for two-way communication between the educator and supervisor.
