"The Massachusetts EPIMS Initiative"

EPIMS is a new initiative being developed by the Department of Education to collect individual educator data from all public school districts and charter schools beginning in October, 2007. Although EPIMS will require districts to submit previously uncollected data on individual educators, it will replace the current District and School Staffing Report. Now that the pilot of 32 districts is complete, come meet with Maureen Chew to get an update on plans for the first EPIMS submission scheduled for this coming Fall.
