The Board has completed their evaluation and the scores have been compiled. Part 1 of the evaluation is based on Standards and Professional Practices derived in part from the Florida Leadership Standards. School Board Members will consider the Superintendent's attainment of each indicator based on the following rubric: Exceeds Expectation (3), Meets Expectation (2), Needs Improvement (1), or Unsatisfactory (0). The Five standards are each broken up into five subcategories and the total points for all sections are computed. The Superintendent's annual contracted compensation in the Employment Contract will be adjusted in accordance with the contract and evaluation instrument. The perfect score for Part 1 is 375 points and the compiled score as completed by the Board, is 370 (see attached score sheet). Part 2 of the evaluation is based on Student Performance Objectives and is based on district goals specific to student achievement. The Superintendent and School Board defined five objectives to serve as the priority focus. The rubric is Meets or Exceeds Expectation (2), Needs Improvement (1), or Unsatisfactory (0). The ratings are averaged and the remainder of the Superintendent's annual contracted compensation in the Employment Contract will be adjusted in accordance with the contract and the evaluation instrument. The maximum score is 2.0 and the Superintendent received 2.0 (See attached score sheet). Following review of the evaluation, the item will be on the agenda for the Regular School Board Meeting, May 11, 2026, for Board approval.
