Within the guidelines established by Board of Education policy, law and employee agreements, the
Superintendent shall direct and coordinate the administrative staff in implementing the educational
philosophy, and achieving the goals and general objectives of the Board of Education.
The Board of Education expects the administration to demonstrate leadership and to resolve the
inevitable problems which will arise both inside the school system and in its relations with the
community. Further, the administration is expected to develop good working relationships with the
community for the achievement of common goals.
The Superintendent of Schools is encouraged to conduct the operations of the school system

Administrative Staff Function
The administrative staff should act as a directing force toward the achievement of excellence in the
educational program. The Superintendent shall organize the staff to achieve the school district goals
as expressed by the Board of Education. The Superintendent shall be the administrator responsible to
the Board of Education and shall identify lines of primary authority for all employees.
The primary responsibility of the administrative staff is to help create and foster an environment of
excellence in which students can learn most effectively. Excellence in education includes ensuring
administrative role models reflect diversity in the population as a whole. In an effort to provide such
role models, the Board supports measures to increase diversity through effective recruitment and
hiring practices.
Professional development activities will be provided for all staff. The Board will work toward
achieving excellence in education by utilizing varied professional development programs aimed at
developing leadership skills, stimulating interest of those who are underrepresented in administrative
positions, and providing career advancement support and professional development opportunities for
new and experienced administrators.

EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
The Colchester Board of Education (the “Board”) is an equal opportunity employer committed
to making employment decisions on the basis of an individual’s qualifications and abilities. The
Board does not discriminate in any employment practice on the basis of race, color, religion,
age, sex, marital status, sexual orientation, national origin, alienage, ancestry, disability,
pregnancy, genetic information, veteran status, gender identity or expression, or any other
protected characteristic, except in the case of a bona fide occupational qualification.
The Board is committed to recruiting and retaining a diverse team of talented professionals,
teachers, administrators, and staff who bring an array of perspectives and experiences to the
district.
All personnel policies and practices of the Colchester Board of Education will be in accord with
equal employment opportunity practices as determined by state and federal legislation. A job
description and required qualifications for a position to be filled will be made available to all
applicants. Equal employment opportunity means that equal employment possibilities are
available to all protected groups and that no individual will be discriminated against because of
race, gender, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, disability, or unrelated
abilities to perform the duties of the position.
The district's staffing plan should be designed to ensure that the public schools are continuously
moving toward integrated staff at all levels, in all schools, and in other areas throughout the
system.
The Board believes in the importance of the district's practices to support the concept of staff
balance. Within each group of employees there will be represented, when possible, a
cross-section of employees of different gender, racial and ethnic backgrounds, and length of
administrative and teaching experience.
Under the balanced-staff concept, the staff and students will benefit greatly by having exposure
to a diverse staff.

Professional Development
The Board of Education recognizes the importance of professional development opportunities for
new and experienced administrators. As leaders of the school system, administrators' active
participation in professional development provides positive role models for other staff and students
by enacting dual roles of teacher and learner. Formal acknowledgment of the importance of these
reciprocal roles and responsibilities will lead to sustained professional growth and learning among
administrative staff, which will, in turn, benefit the school community.
A philosophy that promotes continued learning for all educators should permeate professional
development programs and practices. The philosophy should specifically support different learning
needs, based on experience, and an investment in the professional growth of future school leaders:
1. Innovative programs should be developed and established for teachers who aspire to
administrative positions. A special effort should be made to encourage women and
minorities to seek administrative positions.
2. For new administrators, a comprehensive orientation program should include broad-based
exposure to district practices and resources, provision of mentor support from experienced
administrators, and development of an individualized professional growth plan that targets
priority learning needs.
3. For experienced administrators, flexible professional development opportunities should be
entertained, allowing for career advancement support and long-term areas of professional
pursuit.
All administrators should be exposed to professional growth opportunities and educational practices
that address ways to foster diversity and equity in the school community. Professional development
programs should be developed to assist and alert participants to issues related to the impact of racial,
ethnic, and gender bias in the classroom, in the schools, and in the broader community.

Code of Ethics
An educational administrator's professional behavior must conform to an ethical code. The code
must be idealistic and at the same time practical, so that it can apply reasonably to all educational
administrators. The administrator acknowledges that the schools belong to the public they serve for
the purpose of providing educational opportunities to all. However, the administrator assumes
responsibility for providing professional leadership in the school and community. This responsibility
requires the administrator to maintain standards of exemplary professional conduct. It must be
recognized that the administrator's actions will be viewed and appraised by the community,
professional associates, and students.

Code of Professional Responsibility for School Administrators
Preamble
This code of professional responsibility for school administrators reaffirms and codifies the
principles and standards that have guided the school administrator profession over the years. The
principles set forth in this code are intended to guide the conduct and assist in the appraisal if
conduct for the members of the profession and the public they serve. The code cannot and does not
address every situation in which choices and decisions must be made. The code recognizes the
ability of the members of the profession to make administrative decisions that are in the best interest
of the students and all individuals associated with the school district in which the members serve.
The code adheres to the fundamental belief that the student is the foremost reason for the existence
of the profession. Administrators must focus the energies of schools on student learning above all
else. In addition, the code recognizes the administrator’s responsibility to the public, their
colleagues and all staff members to foster high standards for professional educators, provide
leadership, encourage diversity in curriculum and staff and promote a quality education program.
By setting forth a code of professional responsibility for school administrators separate from the
code applicable to teachers, there is recognition of the similar but different responsibilities that the
two groups have to the students they serve. Both codes seek to codify standards for the education
profession to promote a quality system of education for the students in our state. The additional
responsibility an administrator accepts in the performance of his or her duties is reflected in this
code.
Responsibility to the student:
The professional school administrator in full recognition of obligations to the student shall:
1. Make the well-being of students the fundamental value on all decision-making and actions;
2. Recognize, respect and uphold the dignity and worth of students as individuals and deal justly

3. Promote in students pursuit of truth, knowledge and wisdom, and provide access to all points of
view without deliberate distortion of subject matter;
4. Nurture in students lifelong respect and compassion for themselves and other human beings
regardless of race, ethnic origin, gender social class, disability, religion or sexual orientation;
5. Foster in students the full understanding, application and preservation of democratic principles
and processes;
6. Guide students to acquire the required skills and understandings for participatory citizenship and
to realize their obligation to be worthy and contributing members of society;

physical, and emotional abuse; and
13. Promote ongoing development and evaluation of curriculum.

directly upon the status and substance of the profession;

Evaluation of Superintendent and Other Administrators
In order to advance the instructional program of the school district, the Superintendent of Schools
will establish and will implement an evaluation program for all administrators and teachers. Such a
program will be aimed at improving administrator/teacher performance and at promoting
professional growth within the framework of the goals and objectives of the school district. Such an
evaluative process will include a formal procedure for the evaluation of the Superintendent of
Schools by the Board of Education.
Through the evaluation of the Superintendent, the Board of Education will strive to accomplish the
following:
1. Clarification for the Superintendent of his/her role in the school system as understood by the
Board of Education.
2. Clarification for all Board of Education members of the role of the Superintendent in light of
his/her responsibilities, his/her authority, and his/her organizational expectations.
3. Development of a unity of purpose in order to achieve high priority goals and objectives.
4. Development of an opportunity for goal achievement through regular appraisal and
feedback.
5. Enhancement of organizational health resulting from involved, committed, and strengthened
individuals.
The Superintendent's evaluation and the evaluation of district administrators and teachers should be
viewed as part of an overall district management plan of establishing goals and objective,
appropriate programs, and methods of evaluation. Instructional leadership efforts can only be
productive if teaching and learning are emphasized and if objectives, measurement, and feedback are
part of that effort. Teachers, Administrators, Central Office personnel, and the Board of Education
should be partners in the improvement process, and it is expected that this policy provide direction in
achieving that partnership.
