MN SF2213

Establishes a performance-based pay system for teachers in Minnesota public school districts, charter schools, and intermediate school districts, allowing school boards and teacher representatives to jointly develop compensation systems tied to teacher evaluation outcomes.

Requires teacher evaluation processes to include a three-year professional review cycle with peer review, individual growth plans, and summative evaluations by qualified administrators, with student growth data (via value-added models or learning goals) determining 35 percent of evaluation results.

Creates "evaluation and performance revenue" funding of $260 per pupil for districts implementing performance pay plans, with 65 percent designated as basic aid and remainder available for local levy, effective fiscal year 2016.

Allows school boards and teacher unions to reopen collective bargaining agreements specifically to negotiate performance pay systems, and permits two or four-year contract terms (instead of standard contract length restrictions).

Repeals existing alternative teacher compensation statutes (sections 122A.413-122A.416) effective for the 2017-2018 school year and later, consolidating teacher pay reforms into the new performance-based system.
