1240 - EVALUATION OF THE SUPERINTENDENT
The Board of Education believes it is essential that it evaluate the Superintendent's performance periodically in order to assist both the Board and the Superintendent in the proper discharge of their responsibilities and to enable the Board to provide the District with the best possible leadership.
The Board shall annually evaluate the performance of the Superintendent. Such evaluation shall include an assessment of:
| A. | the progress toward the educational goals of the District; | |
| B. | the working relationship between the Board and the Superintendent; | |
| C. | the Board's own effectiveness in providing direction to the Superintendent. |
The Board and the Superintendent, jointly, shall, at the outset of each evaluation, determine the method by which the evaluation shall be conducted. Such method may include:
| A. | a compilation of assessments on a prepared standard form by individual Board members, which shall then be reviewed jointly by the Board and Superintendent; | |
| B. | evaluation interviews between the Board and Superintendent during which no other business is discussed; | |
| C. | the Superintendent's assessment of Board efficiency and effectiveness. |
As an outcome of the evaluation of the Superintendent's performance, the Board should be prepared to judge the advisability of retention of the Superintendent and:
| A. | be helped in the determination of the Superintendent's salary; | |
| B. | to identify strengthens and weaknesses in District operation and determine means by which weaknesses can be reduced while strengthens are maintained; | |
| C. | establish specific objectives, the achievement of which will advance the District toward its goals; | |
| D. | improve its own performance as the public body ultimately charged with the educational responsibility of this District. |
