Before taking action to non-renew an administrator's contract, the Board of Education shall send written notice of the pending action to the administrator prior to the last day of March preceding the termination date. S/He shall also be advised of his/her right to request a meeting in executive session to discuss a non-renewal of the contract. The Superintendent shall have provided the administrator with a written evaluation of his/her performance at least sixty (60) days prior to the notice to provide time for the administrator to show progress toward eliminating deficiencies identified in the evaluation. The Superintendent shall also ensure that the following language is contained in each administrator's evaluation: the establishment of this evaluation procedure shall not create an expectancy of continued employment.

After receiving the evaluation, an administrator who wishes to meet with the Board concerning his/her non-renewal shall make the request in sufficient time for the Board to provide a proper meeting and complete its action by no later than the last day of March.

When the Superintendent notifies the Board of his/her recommendation to renew an administrator's contract, s/he shall also notify the administrator of his/her right to meet with the Board in executive session to discuss the administrator's performance and/or the terms of the contract prior to action by the Board.
