CBI – Evaluation of Superintendent

The mission of Cherry Creek School District is to inspire every student to think, to learn, to achieve, to care. In support of this mission, the Board of Education views personnel evaluation as an integral part of the learning cycle and a critical element for the attainment of the educational goals of the District. The Board of Education is committed to establishing an evaluation process which shall be the basis for continued employment. The responsibility for the development of procedures and criteria for evaluation of the Superintendent of schools shall rest with the Board. The Board shall consult with the Superintendent in the development of procedures. The task of evaluation of the Superintendent shall be completed by the Board in such manner as may be determined by the Board. The evaluation process shall serve the following purposes:
  1. Serve as a basis for improvement of instruction.
  2. Enhance the implementation of programs of curriculum.
  3. Serve as the measurement of satisfactory performance and as documentation for unsatisfactory performance.
  4. Serve as a measurement of professional growth and development.
  5. Serve as a measurement of the level of performance.
For purposes of this policy and the accompanying regulations, the terms are defined as follows:
  1. The evaluation process is one in which the Superintendent works with the Board concerning his performance, is provided feedback, and is given written evaluation reports designed to improve his performance.
  2. The remediation level of the evaluation process is one in which the need for directed improvement has been identified because of unsatisfactory performance in one or more of the five performance areas (criteria). Directed improvement includes specification of performance areas needing improvement, documentation of the recommended improvement plan, and the Superintendent's progress in meeting the improvement plan.
The Board of Education reserves the right to take immediate and appropriate disciplinary action against the Superintendent when he is found to be in violation of statute and/or Board policy. Those portions of the Superintendent's written evaluation relating to his performance in fulfilling adopted district objectives, fiscal management of the District, District planning responsibilities and supervision and evaluation of District personnel shall be available for inspection by the public during regular office hours. The criteria for evaluation of the Superintendent and the evaluation process will be the same as for administrative personnel.
