This summer, Tampa, Fla.’s Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS), the eighth largest school district in the nation, will deploy technology to help the district attract and retain the best teachers, and increase student graduation rates. “We are completely revamping our evaluations system, and that’s one of the ways we think we’ll leverage improving our teacher performance and empowering our teachers,” said district IT Manager Joe Cochran, adding that this will likely be the first part of LTM that HCPS rolls out. “And we know that’s the most effective lever for improving student performance.”
