Board rates Superintendent Ford exemplary in all categories after executive session
Summary
After an executive session held under KRS statutes, the board publicly reported that Superintendent Ford received "exemplary" ratings in all seven summative evaluation categories and recorded a board vote of confidence.
The Russell County Board of Education entered executive session under statutes noted on the record and later reported its summative evaluation of Superintendent Ford.
The board voted to go into executive session pursuant to the Kentucky statutes referenced in the minutes for preliminary discussion relating to the superintendent's annual evaluation; those citations are recorded in the meeting as the basis for closed discussion.
After returning to open session, the board announced Superintendent Ford received "exemplary" ratings across seven evaluation categories including strategic leadership, instructional leadership, cultural leadership, human resource leadership, managerial leadership, collaborative leadership and influential leadership. The board recorded the evaluation in the minutes and a roll-call vote followed to accept the summative evaluation report.
A speaker recorded in the minutes offered thanks: "But as I as I said, that's in spite of me. I love this district," which the record attributes to the superintendent following the board's action.
The board recorded its vote on the evaluation and placed the evaluation summary in the meeting minutes. No personnel discipline or contract changes were announced publicly at the meeting; next steps were to include documenting the evaluation in the minutes and any required public report.
