Assembly Bill 1X (Chapter 4, Statutes of 1999 and Education Code Section 44505) established the California Peer Assistance and Review (PAR) Program for teachers. This program was developed to assist teachers whose bi-annual personnel reviews were not satisfactory. Assistance and support are provided by exemplary teachers and includes subject matter knowledge, teaching strategies, or both.
Funding Results ( FY 2005-06)
The entitlements should be approximately the
same as last year, with a possible small COLA increase.
Only districts that certified a PAR program before July 1, 2001 are eligible to recieve PAR funding. Direct-funded charter schools receive PAR in their block grant.
