BSL 2 – Performance of the Superintendent

As the leader of the organization, the superintendent's evaluation will be based solely against organizational accomplishment of Board policies on Goals and organizational effectiveness as established by the Board’s Executive Limitations and will take into account stakeholder perceptions. (The four domains include continuous improvement, daily operations, value-added community support, and Board-directed initiatives.)

BSL 2.1 Accountability of the Superintendent

The Board recognizes that the authority and accountability of staff is the responsibility of the superintendent and holds him/her accountable for clearly specifying the Board's requirements and expectations to all other administrators.

The Board shall approve an organization chart that is maintained by the superintendent.

Therefore, the Board will never instruct or evaluate any staff other than the superintendent and treasurer.

The accomplishment of Goals, Executive Limitations and Board evaluation criteria will be viewed as successful superintendent performance.

The Board will establish evaluation criteria prior to the start of each contract year.
