By: observe4success Petersburg City Schools began with a 4-month pilot of the observe4success software and moved to implement it district wide for the 2012-2013 school year. “observe4success is not a complex program” says Dr. Thomason “in fact, some may call it a simplistic vehicle; a statement with which we have always humbly disagreed.” After reading a number of recent articles disputing the necessity of cumbersome, complex evaluations and observations and offering immense support for simplifying the process, Dr. Thomason is confident that Petersburg City School District is on the right track. “This really feels like validation of the path we are taking and we believe that our use of observe4success is central to not only the data collection process but also our success in utilizing the data to more effectively help our teachers.” Considered one of the best classroom walkthrough software packages available today, observe4success melds the benefits of technology, research-based content, fully customizable observation forms, and graphic reports.
