Memo of Understanding
RE:
Rubric for Excellence

between

The Claremont Unified School District ("District") and the Claremont Faculty Association ("Association") agree that the caliber of education in the District schools will continue to be of the highest quality. To establish the components of a consistent high quality instructional delivery system, a Task Force will be formed to create a Rubric for Excellence which will identify the standards associated with a districtwide educational program of the highest quality. The document will provide benchmarks and outcomes of success.

The Task Force will be comprised of a majority of teachers, at least one of whom is a member of the Association Negotiations Team and one elementary, one secondary, and one District administrator.
