Board to use WSBA evaluation tool; trustees schedule full superintendent evaluation for Oct. 25 at 3 p.m.
Summary
Trustees agreed to use a customized version of the WSBA superintendent evaluation tool and set an evaluation meeting for Oct. 25 at 3 p.m. at the central office; administrators will supply the superintendent's self‑assessment in advance for the board's review.
Board members discussed the superintendent evaluation instrument and scheduling at the retreat. The board will use the Washington School Boards Association (WSBA) tool as the base instrument; Billy (board member) prepared an introductory cover page to personalize the instrument for the district.
Trustees agreed to complete individual evaluations, then meet for a joint executive session to compile results and discuss ratings. Justin (district superintendent) said he would provide his self‑assessment to the board before the meeting. The board settled on Saturday, Oct. 25, at 3 p.m. at the central office for the full evaluation meeting; trustees agreed they would bring their individual evaluations to that session and compare results.
Several trustees discussed calibration of the 4‑point rating scale and the expectation that low scores require documented evidence and a conversation; higher scores should likewise be supported with written evidence. Board members said they would use bulleted evidence and a short narrative to justify ratings.
Ending: Board staff will advertise the special meeting as required, Justin will submit his materials in advance, and trustees will complete individual evaluations and convene Oct. 25 at 3 p.m. to finalize the annual assessment.
