GDO - Evaluation of Support Staff

EVALUATION OF SUPPORT STAFF

 The development of a strong, competent staff of employees, and the maintenance of high morale among this staff, are major objectives of the School Committee.  The finding of the right employees to fill vacancies, the determination of assignments and equitable work loads, the establishment of wage and salary policies which encourage employees to put forth their best efforts, the evaluation of employee achievements and the provision of a good atmosphere in which to work are some of the major duties of the administrators and/or supervisors.  A program of continuous evaluation  is necessary in fulfilling these duties.  At a minimum, a yearly summative evaluation will be completed by April 1st.

The evaluation will cover the major areas of the employee’s responsibilities which include the following:

  - specific work assignment;

  - attitude toward children;

  - attitude toward supervisors, teachers, fellow employees; and

  - work habits.

The employee’s supervisor has the responsibility to inform each employee in advance of the criteria to be used in evaluation.

Each employee will be given an explanation of his or her duties and responsibilities and guidance in performing them satisfactorily by his or her immediate supervisor. A job description will be given to each employee upon hiring.
