Parent Input on Teacher Performance

Martha Elderon, melderon@pausd.org

Each year at this time, parents and students are asked to provide input on teacher performance. We urge you to respond to this request because it is one of several important sources of information to help teachers and their supervisors improve instruction. Students will be asked to complete input forms in their classes. Parents are required to sign their input, while student input is anonymous.

Please remember that teachers’ assigned supervisors are the sole evaluators of teacher performance and that this input process is not an appropriate or effective means to present complaints. If you have a specific problem or concern about a teacher and you have not been able to resolve it, please contact their Instructional Supervisor.

Download the form from the Gunn PTA website here:

Other forms are available from the Gunn PTA website here:

Your completed form goes directly to the teacher and is not seen by anyone else unless the teacher chooses to share it. Return each form to
(Name of Teacher)
Gunn High School
780 Arastradero Road
Palo Alto, CA 94306.

You may also give your input to the teacher directly by email.
