Elizabeth – BASTROP ISD (verified owner) –
If you are a gen ed teacher this is GREAT! If you’re a sped teacher with different functional levels of students or pull out services, you’ll need to talk to your administrator on how to make the rubric work

Covered the TTESS well.
Stacie – HAWKINS ISD (verified owner) –
Very informative.
Cammie – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –

April – PORT NECHES-GROVES ISD (verified owner) –
I thought this was informative. It was my first introduction to T-TESS and I feel like I have a pretty good understanding of the evaluation system.
Marcie – NEW BRAUNFELS ISD (verified owner) –
It was a really good course overall. It was concise and to the point, but the information presented was done so efficiently and effectively.
Kylie – EAGLE MT-SAGINAW ISD (verified owner) –
It’s a good course to take to get an overall knowledge of what T-TESS is about.
Savannah – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
Really easy to navigate and fairly quick for time while content is still efficient.
Vanessa – SAN MARCOS CISD (verified owner) –
It was very frustrating to me that the “submit” buttons were nowhere near the other buttons. I kept hitting “next” and having to go back and resubmit all my answers. This seems like a simple formatting fix. It’s nice that it’s available but it is very time consuming and there is much to do. I do not like that it was expected to do this at home as unpaid training. There should be a dedicated part of a professional development day or this time should be credited toward trade time.
