In Episode 3 of our Teacher Evaluations series, the VIBE Edu crew — Kim Gameroz, Joshua Stamper, TJ Vari, and Mitch Weathers — kick things off by recapping our unforgettable VIBE Edu event in California. Kim shares heartfelt testimonials from attendees, while Josh and Mitch reflect on their panel discussion about executive functioning and student behavior systems.

Then we dive deep into the art (and science) of teacher evaluations, covering:

• Structuring your schedule for frequent classroom visits

• Building a “relationship inventory” with your staff

• Modeling instructional strategies as a leader

• Setting expectations before evaluations with clear communication

• How pre-conferences make scoring fair and transparent

• Establishing trust as an observer

• Narrowing focus to one area at a time instead of overwhelming checklists

And of course… we couldn’t resist throwing TJ off his game with a little sign-based mischief.

This episode blends actionable strategies with plenty of laughs — all aimed at helping leaders create evaluations that actually support teacher growth.
