Board considers WASB evaluation tool; agrees to pursue purchase timed to avoid duplicate billing
Summary
Board members reviewed a WASB superintendent-evaluation subscription priced at $395 annually, discussed timing and customization, and agreed in principle to buy it with a start date designed to avoid overlapping billing periods.
Board members discussed a WASB superintendent-evaluation service introduced from a recent convention and noted its annual cost of $395. The tool was described as customizable and useful for keeping evaluations current and aiding succession planning.
Several trustees expressed support. One member suggested timing the purchase so the district would not pay twice within the same fiscal year; another asked whether the tool could be modified to meet local needs and was told it is customizable.
The board reached general agreement to pursue the purchase and tasked the president and staff to follow up on timing details so the subscription would begin at a point that avoids back-to-back payments.
No formal vote to expend funds was recorded at the meeting; the discussion concluded with a plan for staff to investigate timing, billing and implementation details before returning with a recommendation.
