Book Superintendents  and Principals  Perception of Principal Evaluation Systems

Download or read book Superintendents and Principals Perception of Principal Evaluation Systems written by Maria Edelberg and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative research study was to examine superintendents' and principals' perceptions of how principal evaluation systems influenced a principal's leadership in promoting high levels of student achievement. Survey results, principal interviews, superintendent interviews, and principal evaluations tools were used to gather the information and data. Results from the study revealed there were no patterns of agreement among the four school districts studied on what was evaluated in the district's principal evaluation systems. Moreover, there were opposing views within districts among principals and between principals and superintendents on what was actually evaluated in their district's principal appraisal system. When a review of the districts' principal appraisal systems was conducted for linkages to ISLLC and the Pennsylvania Inspired Leadership Standards, data demonstrated only one district had explicit references to both of the Standards. The other districts varied from some direct linkages to the Standards to no mention of any of the Standards. Additionally, the study confirmed that there were some similarities among components of the principals evaluation systems among the four school districts studied. Lastly, the studied revealed none of the four school districts which participated in this study used meeting Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) as a measure when evaluating principals.

Book excerpt: Effective principals run effective schools--this much we know. Accurately measuring principal effectiveness, however, has long been an elusive goal for school administrators. In this indispensable book, author James H. Stronge details the steps and resources necessary for designing a comprehensive principal evaluation system that is based on sound research and established best practices. Here you'll find everything you need to thoroughly assess principal performance, including * An in-depth analysis of research findings related to principal evaluation. * A set of seven field-tested and research-based principal performance standards. * Detailed indicators for each standard that describe the principal's duties and expected level of performance. * A four-point performance appraisal rubric for each standard. * Forms and checklists for use in compiling evidence of performance and completing evaluations. * A step-by-step guide to planning, designing, implementing, and troubleshooting a successful evaluation system. If there's a new principal evaluation system rolling out in your school or district, or if your administration is planning to build one, Principal Evaluation: Standards, Rubrics, and Tools for Effective Performance is essential for ensuring that the system is accurate, fair, and effective.

Book Superintendent and Principal Perceptions of the Utilization and Impact of Performance based Evaluations

Download or read book Superintendent and Principal Perceptions of the Utilization and Impact of Performance based Evaluations written by Robert E. Abeln and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose of the study . The purpose of this research was to determine how superintendents and principals perceived the implementation of Performance-Based Principal Evaluations (PBPE) and the impact PBPE had on principals' job performance. This research was guided by six questions regarding the perceptions of superintendents and principals of the implementation and impact of PBPE, and how these perceptions compared. The research also determined what relationship, if any, existed between the implementation and impact of PBPE. Procedures . A questionnaire developed for this research was mailed to the superintendents and principals of 125 randomly selected school districts in Missouri that met enrollment criterion. The questionnaire collected demographic and profile data of the participants. The participants' perceptions of the implementation and impact of PBPE were determined using a Likert-type scale to respond to various components and processes of PBPE. The data were analyzed using frequencies and percentages. Mean responses were computed for each of the components and processes of PBPE and placed in rank order for analysis. Subscale total means were used to compare the perceptions of the superintendents and the principals. A Pearson correlation was used to determine the relationship between perceived implementation and impact of PBPE. Findings . More superintendents than principals reported that PBPE was used in their school districts. When responses by the superintendents and principals were analyzed, superintendents perceived PBPE as being implemented to a greater degree than did the principals. Similarly, the superintendents perceived the impact of PBPE to be greater than the principals. When the perceptions of the superintendents and principals for implementation and impact were examined, a significant positive relationship was found to exist. The completion of a summative evaluation as part of PBPE was ranked highest by both the superintendents and the principals. Conclusions . It was found that PBPE is not implemented in all Missouri school districts, and when PBPE is being used, the components of the formative phase of the evaluation are not fully implemented. The use of evaluation to facilitate improved job performance of the principals was not evident as nearly half the principals reported that professional growth plans were not developed. The relationship found between the perceptions of implementation and impact may indicate that a higher degree of implementation could result in a higher degree of impact PBPE has on principals' job performance. This relationship should be investigated through further research.

Book Superintendents  and Principals  Perceptions of Leadership Domains for Evaluating Principals  Performance

Download or read book Superintendents and Principals Perceptions of Leadership Domains for Evaluating Principals Performance written by Clifford Byron Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: For an evaluation system to be effective, both the evaluator and the evaluatee must agree on the theoretical importance and practical relevance of the criteria and have confidence in the evaluator to apply these criteria. This study describes differences and correlations between the perceptions of superintendents and principals with respect to the theoretical importance, practical relevance, and confidence they both have in a superintendent's ability to evaluate principals in the four domains of leadership included in North Carolina's new principals' evaluation system: instructional, organizational, moral/ethical, and managerial leadership. The study surveyed superintendents and their principals in school districts in North Carolina that had enrollments between 5,000 and 25,000 students in 1998-99. The total respondent group included 47 superintendents and 518 principals. Descriptive statistics, hierarchical linear modeling, t-tests, and correlations were used to analyze the superintendents' and principals' perceptions. Seven major conclusions were derived from the study's extensive findings. Most important of these, both superintendents and principals consider the four leadership domains to be more theoretically important to being an effective principal than practically relevant to the daily tasks of a principal, and the confidence ratings of both groups are not as high as their importance and relevance ratings. Furthermore, the confidence ratings of principals are significantly lower than those of superintendents. With a few specific exceptions, these perceptions do not vary with demographic or experience variables.
