                        EVALUATION OF SUPERINTENDENT AND OTHER ADMINISTRATORS

                                                       in accordance with state requirements
    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
                                                                                                                         A
B   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.


    The formal evaluation process for certified staff will be developed through the Professional
    Development and Evaluation Committee and approved by the Board of Education.
