Forest Hills board formalizes superintendent goals around communication, trust and safety
Summary
After a closed-session evaluation under MCL 15.2681(a), the board returned to open session and identified communication, trust, and safety/security (including student mental health and building safety) as priority goals for Superintendent Kirby.
Following a closed session held to conduct the superintendent's evaluation pursuant to MCL 15.2681(a), the board returned to open session and discussed formalizing performance goals for the superintendent. The Chair said the themes that rose to the top were "communication and trust and safety and security," and members agreed those areas should be elevated as formal goals for use in the superintendent evaluation.
Board members noted community research had identified similar priorities: a member observed that "these things kinda rose to the top there too," referencing earlier community input. Members asked Superintendent Kirby to take the broad themes and craft formal goals; staff (including Elizabeth and Isabella, as thanked on the record) committed to putting the goals into a format usable for year-end evaluation and future progress reports. The transcript does not record specific numeric targets, timelines, or implementation budget for the goals; those details were not read into the record at this meeting.
