Why Do We Evaluate Administrators? To provide high quality feedback that deepens skills and improves leader performance, leading to increased student learning.
Administrator Evaluation Advisory Council • 15 Council members, comprised of Directors, Instructional Supervisors, University Leadership Preparation Professors, Principals, and Assistant Principals meet monthly to share and provide feedback about the Pilot evaluation. • Review data and feedback from the 10 districts involved in the revised Administrator Evaluation Rubric Pilot during the 2013-14 school year, inform revisions to the rubric content, processes, and supporting tools, and with Department staff, make a joint recommendation for 2014-15 statewide rollout of the revised Administrator Evaluation rubric to the State Board of Education. • Seek feedback from various stakeholders to inform revisions to the current administrator licensure policy, and with Department staff, make a joint-recommendation for a revised licensure policy to the State Board of Education in 2014.
Participating Districts • Davidson County • Decatur County • Franklin County • Jackson-Madison County • Lexington City • Milan SSD • Putnam County • Trousdale County • Wilson County • Union County
