- Summary:
-
A procedure for evaluating principals was developed over a period of approximately two years at Wellesley, Massachusetts. First, position descriptions were prepared. Then, several meetings were held with all administrators including department heads. Following these general workshops, eight administrators volunteered for a week's workshop during the summer. Through developing their own position descriptions, these administrators became qualified to conduct interviews with administrative personnel. The Wellesley evaluation program provides for (1) sufficient contact with the individual in his usual working area so that the evaluator feels competent to discuss the evaluatee's performance, (2) at least two formal conferences a year and, (3) written reports of all formal conferences to the superintendent of schools. The conference includes (1) a discussion of long- and short-range objectives agreed upon by both the evaluator and the evaluatee, (2) a discussion of the administrator's overall performance as outlined in the administrator's position description, (3) a discussion of the evaluatee's performance in terms of responsibilities common to all administrators, and (4) a written narrative report by the evaluator.
