EVALUATION GOALS

The evaluation process presents a common core of desirable knowledge, dispositions and

performances that will help link leadership more forcefully to productive school programs and

enhanced student outcomes. The evaluation standards are aligned with the National Council for the

Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) curriculum guidelines for school administration and

major national reports on leadership for tomorrow’s schools. This evaluation plan is a concerted

effort to enhance the skills of school leaders and couple leadership with effective educational

processes and valued student outcomes.

This evaluation process should stimulate vigorous thought and dialogue about quality educational

leadership among stakeholders in the area of school administration. This evaluation process should

also provide raw material that will help stakeholders across the District’s education landscape

enhance the quality of educational leadership throughout the District’s programs. 

FORMATIVE EVALUATION 

Evaluations that help to shape, mold, form or improve performance during the

developmental stage are formative. Evaluating administrators must provide frequent and

specific feedback aimed at improving administrative personnel performance. Formative

evaluations promote improvement and assist in identifying areas for personal and

professional growth.

SUMMATIVE EVALUATION

Evaluations that allow final decisions about performance are summative. The annual and

biennial evaluations of personnel are summative evaluations and include information from

formative evaluations.

INFORMAL FEEDBACK 

It is important that administrative personnel receive frequent feedback from evaluating

administrators soon after each performance observation quickly enough so that

administrative personnel are able to take any necessary corrective action before the next

observation. This feedback will be considered informal and may take the form of a brief 

written note after an observation. The written note is not considered to be a part of the

final, written evaluation. There should be no surprises when the formal, written evaluation

is completed. Feedback should always be specific and include examples.

TENURE FOR ADMINISTRATIVE PERSONNEL

Administrative personnel achieve tenure in the District after four (4) probationary years based upon

their Illinois certification. Tenure in administrative positions is not granted by the District except as

indicated in single or multi-year contracts. Continuation in administrative positions is dependent

upon satisfactory evaluations in all areas important to the administrator’s administrative

responsibilities as determined by the administrator and the evaluating administrator in theSeptember/October pre-evaluation meeting.

DATA COLLECTION

Administrative personnel are evaluated based upon performance data gathered by the evaluating

administrators. Each administrative evaluation may be based upon the following information:

1.  Attendance and punctuality

2.  Collaboration skills

3.  Planning that supports research based instruction

4.  Mentoring staff and administrative colleagues

3

Page 5: Administrative Evaluation Plan

8/3/2019 Administrative Evaluation Plan

5.  Competency and knowledge in fulfilling the administrative assignment

6.  Timelines and accuracy of reports and assigned projects

7.  Contributions to District programs

8.  Contributions to District vision and mission

9.  Problem identification and problem solving activities

10. Reports from activities in the member district

11. Conference and District presentations

12. Contributions to public school policy and leadership issues

DIFFERENTIATED EVALUATION FOR ADMINISTRATORS

Administrators who have completed at least four (4) complete administrative evaluations with

“excellent” ratings may, upon mutual agreement between the administrative personnel and the

evaluating administrator, participate in a differentiated administrative evaluation in place of the

evaluation used for other administrative personnel. The District’s Differentiated Evaluation for

Administrators Form shall be used.

EVALUATION TIMELINES

All administrative personnel are evaluated at least once during the term of their contract or morefrequently if deemed necessary by the evaluating administrator. Single-year contractual

administrative personnel shall be evaluated by February 1st

of each school year, and multi-year

contractual administrative personnel shall be evaluated by February 1 of the final year of the multi-

year contract pursuant to Section 24 A-15 of the Illinois School Code.

All administrative evaluations are written and include a description of the administrative personnel

duties, strengths and weaknesses along with supportive data. The administrative evaluation shall be

aligned with the Illinois Professional Standards for School Leaders.

Failure to evaluate and provide the administrative personnel with a copy of the evaluation at least

once during the term of the contract will serve as evidence of satisfactory performance and willautomatically extend the administrative personnel contact for a period of one year after the contract

would otherwise expire.
