Tennessee Educator Acceleration Model (TEAM)
Tennessee's statewide teacher evaluation model that assesses teacher performance across four domains using a five-level rubric. TEAM combines qualitative observation data with quantitative student growth measures (TVAAS) to produce an overall effectiveness rating. It is one of the most detailed state evaluation systems in the country.
Mandated statewide in Tennessee for all public school districts.
