Both the Hall County and Gainesville school superintendents agree that the law and rules for teacher evaluations need to be revised, but they differ on a bill that was approved Friday in the House Education Committee. “There’s an awful lot of consensus that we need to streamline these processes and that we need to make them more user friendly, and I agree with that 100 percent,” Will Schofield, Hall County superintendent, said. But Schofield also said the state should “think through all the moving parts” and delay action for a year so “we can come up with a thoughtful, long-term plan.”
