Book Synopsis Evaluating the Superintendent by : Jarett Powers
Download or read book Evaluating the Superintendent written by Jarett Powers. This book was released on 2019-07-26. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As local elections and other occurrences can transform a board and its direction, having a performance review cycle to ensure that all board members understand the philosophy undergirding the superintendent’s evaluation is critical to ensuring that all members of the governing board are operating within a similar framework and purpose as they approach the superintendent’s evaluation cycle. Acknowledging that superintendents have the potential to grow in their professional capacity, revisiting the philosophical underpinnings of the evaluation over time ensures that the process does not remain static. Each chapter within this text is designed to develop the basis for understanding the superintendent’s evaluation process to create opportunities for an open and continuous dialogue between superintendents and school boards. This book will support those charged with leading and governing public schools to implement effective evaluations for both school boards and superintendents that provide an objective and summative collection of the superintendent’s annual performance and his/her relative impact on targeted success within a given school year.

Book Synopsis Superintendent Performance Evaluation: Current Practice and Directions for Improvement by : I. Carl Candoli
Download or read book Superintendent Performance Evaluation: Current Practice and Directions for Improvement written by I. Carl Candoli. This book was released on 2012-12-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every school district needs a system of sound superintendent performance evaluation. School district superintendents are and must be accountable to their school boards, communities, faculties, and students for delivering effective educational leadership. To assure that they are evaluated fairly, competently, and functionally, superintendents need to help their school boards plan and implement evaluation systems that adhere to the evaluation standards. Superintendent Performance Evaluation outlines some of the problems and deficiencies in current evaluation practice and offers professionally-based leads for strengthening or replacing superintendent performance evaluation systems. This book focuses on the on-the-job performance of school district superintendents as they implement school board policy. The decision to focus on performance evaluation reflects the importance of this kind of evaluation in the move to raise educational standards and improve educational accountability. Boards and superintendents are advised to make superintendent performance evaluation an integral part of the district's larger system for evaluating district needs, plans, processes, and accomplishments.

Book Synopsis Publicly Available Information Regarding the Evaluation of School District Superintendents in New York State by : Jarett Powers
Download or read book Publicly Available Information Regarding the Evaluation of School District Superintendents in New York State written by Jarett Powers. This book was released on 2017. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative case study from archival material was to evaluate the degree of public transparency in the evaluation methodology and procedures of school superintendents of districts with student populations between 700 and 900 students in the State of New York. This study examined the language of the 71 superintendent employment agreements and school district websites as they related to superintendent annual evaluations, and the responses of 22 of 71 school districts regarding the evaluatory methodologies utilized in evaluating the district leader. Specifically, the questions that guided this study were: 1. What are the stated purposes and processes for the evaluation of the school superintendent amongst these districts as stated in superintendent contracts? 2. In what ways are the Essential Knowledge and Skills for Effective School Leadership (2001) referenced in the evaluatory methodology and procedures of school superintendents? 3. How do superintendents promote public transparency with regard to the evaluatory criteria in their evaluation? 4. What are the most common elements for evaluation listed in contract language and how do these criteria relate to the literature surrounding superintendent evaluations? The study found no explicit usage of the Essential Knowledge and Skills for Effective School Leadership (2001), the defined leadership standards for the State of New York in the evaluation process; that the process of evaluating the school superintendent is not highly transparent amongst these school districts; that there are disparate approaches and processes utilized by school boards in evaluating the superintendent; the literature surrounding superintendent evaluation is dated; and there is not an abundance of recent relevant research on the topic of school superintendent evaluations. The study concluded that the process of superintendent evaluation is not well articulated in New York State due to an ambiguous state regulation regarding superintendent evaluation. Standards driven evaluations do not feature highly in the evaluation process of school superintendents, and that the evaluation process is not highly transparent to stakeholders in the various school districts.
