Policy CBI
Evaluation of Superintendent
School Board Approved: October 1, 2018
The Board will annually evaluate the Superintendent based on written criteria as established by the Board. Co-extensive with the Superintendent evaluation, the Board and Superintendent will jointly establish annual goals and objectives. The Board believes that establishing annual goals and objectives will serve as a benchmark and criteria for the Superintendent’s annual evaluation.
The Superintendent is responsible for the services described in applicable statute and Department of Education rules. In addition to and related to those responsibilities, the following areas are representative of those in which objectives may be set and progress appraised:
- Fiscal management
- Curriculum
- Pupil achievement and assessment
- Delivery of instruction
- Relationship with the school board
- Administration of educational services
- Administration of school facilities
- Governance of pupils
- Hiring and supervision of school district staff
- Overall leadership on educational issues
The board may choose not to annually evaluate and review every area listed above.
The Board desires that the annual Superintendent evaluation and goal setting will clarify the Superintendent’s role within the school community, address areas for the Superintendent to improve, and address areas for which the Superintendent should be commended.
NHSBA Note, September 2012: This policy has been amended generally and expands the areas of assessment. The areas of assessment are now related to statutory and regulatory duties of superintendents, per NH RSAs and NHDOE rules. Additionally, NHSBA is amending its recommended superintendent evaluation form. Please contact NHSBA for more information.
