The Mid-Prairie School Board, Administrative Team, and IBB Team would like to encourage teachers to seek feedback from parents, students, and peers, in order to improve instruction, and become more reflective teachers. The district is offering all teachers the opportunity to receive a $250 stipend for certified staff or a $125 stipend for support staff for completion of the process. This will not be tied to your evaluation in any way. This wiki will be a place for resources to be collected.
