Certificated Management
The Governing Board shall establish and define job responsibilities for administrative personnel. The evaluation and assessment of the competency of administrative personnel shall be based on:
1. The administrator's progress toward agreed-upon goals, objectives and tasks.
2. General expectations of performance which recognize professional responsibility, accountability and attitude.
3. The fulfillment of responsibilities contained in the specific
job descriptions.
4. Additional factors as determined by the Superintendent.
The evaluation shall recognize the worth and needs of the individual in the total working environment and shall provide direction toward improved effectiveness.
Each administrator shall be evaluated formally at least once every other school year. Administrators new to a position may be evaluated each year for the first two (2) years in the position. Evaluation is a continuous process and may occur between scheduled periods at the request of the administrator, the administrator's immediate supervisor or any higher supervisor.
Formal management evaluations shall be recorded in writing on a form prescribed by the Superintendent. The evaluation shall include recommendations for improvement if needed. Assistance shall be provided by the district to this end.
The evaluation report must be signed by the evaluator and the evaluatee and may be reviewed by the evaluator's immediate supervisor at the request of either party. The signature of the evaluated administrator shall not show agreement with the evaluation unless so indicated above his/her signature.
A copy of the report shall be given to the administrator within fifteen (15) working days following the evaluation and no later than thirty (30) days before the last scheduled school day. The employee may make a written response to the evaluation at any time up to fifteen
(15) days after receiving a copy of the evaluation. The response shall be attached to the evaluation and permanently placed in the employee's personnel file.
For twelve-month employees, the written evaluation report shall be given to the administrator no later than June 30 and a discussion of the evaluation shall be held no later than July 30 of the year in which the evaluation takes place. (Education Code 44663)
The Superintendent or designee shall develop regulations and procedures for the evaluation of all administrative and supervisory personnel. These written regulations and procedures shall
be available to administrative and supervisory personnel. (Education Code 35171)
Classified Management Employees
Classified management personnel will be evaluated according to the procedures developed by the Superintendent or designee and approved by the Governing Board. The evaluation shall include recommendations for improvement if needed. Assistance shall be provided by the district to this end.
The evaluation form must be signed by both the person being evaluated and the supervisor making the evaluation. The signature of the evaluated management employee shall not show agreement with the evaluation unless so indicated above the signature of the employee. The employee may make written response to the evaluation at any time up to fifteen (15) days after receiving a copy of the evaluation. The response shall be attached to the evaluation and placed in the employee's personnel
file.
