Nov yog cuaj yam khoom tseemceeb tshaj uas koj yuavtsum paub txog cov tsev kawm ntawv cov kev npaj ua raws:

Rau tamsim no, tus nom tswv tswj lub xeev tau hais kom cov tsev kawm ntawv kaw twj ywm mus kom txog rau Lub Plaub Hlis.

Cov menyuam kawm ntawv yuav rov qab tuaj kawm ntawv rau Lub Tsib Hlis Tim 5.
Tiamsis qhov no tsuas yog txoj kev npaj rau lub sijhawm no xwb. Walz kuj muaj feem yuav muab txoj kev kaw tsev kawm ntawv no rub kom ntev zog mus. Tsis tas li ntawd, lub sijhawm no kuj poob rau lub sijhawm uas yeej so rau lub caij ntuj tshiab – uas ib co tsev kawm ntawv hauv xeev Minnesota no nyuam qhuav tabtom so dhau lossis ib txhia tabtom pib yuav so lossis ib txhia tabtom so txog nrab ntawm qhov so lub caij ntuj tshiab. Cov tej koog tsev kawm ntawv tabtom ua haujlwm saib xyuas txog qhov no thiab.
2) Cov menyuam yuav kawm kom tsis tu ncua tau licas yog tsev kawm ntawv kaw lawm?

Qhov kev kawm ncua kev deb no yuav txawv raws ib qib rau ib qib, ib fab rau ib fab, txawv raws tsev kawm ntawv thiab raws cov xibfwb. Nws kuj yuav txawv raws seb cov tsev neeg thiab cov tsev kawm ntawv muaj dabtsi los pab tau kev kawm raws li no.
Tiamsis cov kws qhia ntawv twb tau xav txog txoj kev nyuab suab uas tejzaum cov tsev neeg kuj muaj lawm. Lawv feem coob twb tau siv lub sijhawm ob peb hnub dhau los no los tiv tauj cov menyuam kawm ntawv hauv xovtooj lossis email. Lawv muab txoj kev sib tiv tauj saib muaj nuj nqis tshaj txoj kev qhia txog ntaub ntawv, thiab siv sijhawm los saib xyuas txog lawv cov menyuam kawm ntawv txoj kev coj thiab kev xav nrog rau yam uas cov menyuam yuavtsum muaj ua ntej tso. Dua li qhov ntawd, coob leej xibfwb pom tau tias kev qhia ntawv “tsawg zoo tshaj ntau” yog qhov zoo tshaj uas yuav tsis ua rau cov menyuam thiab niam txiv ntxhov siab.
3) Lub sijhawm tsev kawm ntawv kaw lawm, cov niam txiv yuavtsum tau ua dabtsi?
Cov kws qhia ntawv thiab cov nom tswv hauv lub xeev pom zoo txog tias niam thiab txiv tsis tas yuav ua xibfwb qhia ntawv tom tsev.
“Peb tsis yog hais kom cov niam txiv thiab cov neeg tu menyuam xyaum ua xibfwb qhia ntawv rau lawv tej menyuam, qhia txog tej yam uas lawv cov menyuam yuavtsum kawm hauv tsev kawm ntawv. Qhov ntawd yeej tseem yog lub luag haujlwm ntawm cov kws qhia ntawv xwb,” Heather Mueller, tus thawj saib xyuas kev kawm ntawv, tau hais rau Hnub Thursday. “Lawv twb tau siv yim hnub dhau los no – thiab yeej kawm tawm los – rau txoj kev npaj ua txoj haujlwm no thiab los saib xyuas kom lawv cov menyuam kawm ntawv yeej kawm tau ntxiv mus.”
Cov koog tsev kawm ntawv kuj tabtom npaj yuav muab lawv cov tswvyim txog kev kawm ncua kev deb no coj los tso rau lawv cov vassab rau lub lispiam no lossis lig kawg kiag yog rau Hnub Monday.
4) Ua li hais txog tsev kawm ntawv kev zov menyuam ne?
Cov tsev kawm ntawv yeej tseem yuavtsum npaj kev zov menyuam rau cov menyuam ntawm cov neeg uas ua haujlwm rau fab kev noj qab haus huv thiab fab kev kub ntxhov thiab npaj zaub mov rau cov menyuam ntawd noj. Qhov kev zov menyuam no twb yeej tau muaj pib Lub Peb Hlis Tim 18 los lawm, thiab yog muaj pub dawb rau cov niam txiv uas ua haujlwm rau fab kev noj qab haus huv lossis lwm hom haujlwm “tseebceeb”.
Muaj ntau lub tsev kawm ntawv tau siv cov neeg ua haujlwm – ua ntej hnub kawm pib lossis tom qab hnub kawm xaus – coj los pab zov cov menyuam no, thiab lub Minnesota Department of Education tau tshaj tawm tias twb yeej muaj txhiab leej menyuam uas nyob cov keb pabcuam zov menyuam li no los lawm.

5) Cov tsev kawm ntawv yuav ua licas siv kev qhia ntawv ncua kev deb kom sib luag rau txhua tus?
Xeev Minnesota yog ib lub xeev muaj ntau yam hais txog cov menyuam kawm ntawv tsis muaj vajhuam kawm sib luag nyob rau lub tebchaws no. Nws kuj yog tej yam uas yuav tau muab saib thaum hais txog qhov no: Kev kawm ntawv ncua kev deb yuav zoo licas rau cov menyuam uas muaj kev tu ncua? Cov menyuam kawm ntawv uas tsis muaj tsev nyob ruaj khov? Cov menyuam kawm ntawv uas lus Askiv tsis yog lawv thawj hom lus? Cov menyuam kawm ntawv uas tsev neeg tsis txwm peem ua ntej qhov no tau tshwmsim? Cov menyuam ntawm tej hais neeg tsawg txoj kev kawm puas yuav raug kev cuam tshuam loj?

6) Kev saib txog menyuam kev tuaj kawm ntawv thiab xeem ntawv ne? Cov tsev kawm ntawv puas tseem suav tej no?
Cov xibfwb yeej tseem yuav qhia ntawv raws li lub xeev cov txheej txheem thiab tseem yuav saib seb tus menyuam twg kawm los tsis kawm. Tiamsis tej yam no yuav ua txawv dua li txoj kev uas tau ua dhau los.
Lub xeev txheej Education Department yeej tseem yuav kom cov xibfwb tiv tauj cov menyuam kawm ntawv kom tsis tu ncua. Yog li no, kev saib txog menyuam kev tuaj kawm ntawv kuj yuav yog xws li cov xibfwb yuav nug cov menyuam txog tej yam thiab kom cov menyuam teb lawv xwb.
Tus Education Commissioner Mary Cathryn Ricker tau hais tias qhov saib txog menyuam kev tuaj kawm ntawv rau lub sijhawm no ces tsuas yog qhov uas saib xyuas kom menyuam kawm ntawv muaj kev sib cev lus nrog rau lawv cov xibfwb rau lub sijhawm lawv tuaj tsis tau rau hauv lub tsev kawm ntawv.

Lub xeev chaw tswj kev kawm ntawv yuav thov cai hla tawm ntawm lub tebchaws tus cai tswj txog txheej txheem saib raws kev xeem ntawv hauv xeev.
7) Cov xeem yuav nkag mus kawm qib siab ne? Cov ntawd puas tseem muaj?
