1110 - Assessment of District Goals
One of the major functions of the Board of Education is to work with the
administration to establish the goals by which the District can accomplish its
mission and to provide the resources necessary for their accomplishment. Because
of the importance the Board places on accomplishing goals, it has established
the following policy for effective assessment of the District's progress toward
their realization.
In conjunction with its annual evaluation of the Superintendent, the Board
shall also provide the time for both the Board and the administration to assess
the progress of the District, during the previous year, toward the achievement
of current goals. Both the Superintendent's evaluation and the
progress-assessment of goals shall take place at a time of the year when the
following conditions are most favorable to assure this policy operates as
intended.
|
A. |
Adequate data on
results-to-date of each District goal is available (AG 1110) so assessment and
evaluation can focus on how well the District is accomplishing its goals.
|
|
B. |
The Board uses this
assessment/evaluation time period to assess the effectiveness of the Board as
well as each Board member (Form 0134 F1).
|
|
C. |
Summaries and synthesized
data, compiled from the evaluation of the Superintendent, the Board's
self-assessment, and the evaluation data on programs and staff, is available to
serve as reference information when determining the reasons for progress and/or
lack of progress toward accomplishment of District goals.
|
This annual process of assessing/evaluating the Board, the Superintendent,
staff, programs, and resources shall not be considered finished until:
|
A. |
District goals and the
strategies and actions being used to accomplish them have been reviewed and
reprioritized;
|
|
B. |
revisions have been made in
light of what all of the evaluation data for that year has indicated should be
changed or should be continued in order to improve the accomplishment of
District goals;
|
|
C. |
the Board develops and
implements a plan to improve its own performance as the body charged with the
responsibility for the governing of the District.
