GFC-R - Evaluation Procedure-Administrators
EVALUATION PROCEDURE - ADMINISTRATORS
I Intent
Evaluation of administrators is an ongoing process which should not be inhibited by starting and ending points. However, in order to fulfill the need for recording the assessment of the individual performance of the administrator, certain checkpoints are necessary. The intent of this procedure is to provide a basis for assessment and a time frame in which an annual recording of this assessment will take place. It is expected that the evaluation process will be continuous and will not begin and end with the checkpoints established in this policy.
II. Purposes of Evaluation
The purposes of administrator evaluation are two-fold. First, it is necessary to determine the success of the administrator in carrying out assigned responsibilities. Secondly, it is a means by which system-wide school and/or individual goals and objectives can be developed and promoted.
III. Evaluation Process
The success of the administrator in carrying out assigned responsibilities shall be assessed in relation to the duties outlined in a job description approved for the administrative position. This job description shall contain the performance responsibilities on which the administrative evaluation is based.
Each administrator shall undertake a process of establishing goals and objectives. This process requires a sharing of responsibility for input into the development of goals and objectives by the administrator and the immediate supervisor responsible for the evaluation. This process shall be completed annually, prior to the beginning of the new school year, resulting in mutually agreed upon goals and objectives being developed and presented to the School Superintendent. The goals and objectives developed shall be related, but not restricted to those established by the School Committee, School Superintendent and faculty. The goals and objectives established annually shall be reviewed as a part of the administrative evaluation.
A written evaluation shall be prepared by the School Superintendent by May 1st of each year. The evaluation shall reflect the administrator’s success in accomplishing mutually accepted goals and objectives within the framework of the administrator’s approved job description.
