It is the responsibility of the school board to evaluate the performance of the superintendent every year. The Board Leadership Department provides options to support boards in their fiduciary responsibility.

Our evaluation service is designed to:

• Streamline response collection
• Support the work of the board president
• Create a professional, comprehensive report
• Identify the strengths and leadership qualities of the educational leader

This year the Board Leadership Department is excited to offer a new service to our members!

The Leadership Encompass 360 is a superintendent evaluation that gives the board a 360-degree view of the superintendent’s performance by including internal and external stakeholders in their superintendent evaluation. This process ensures the superintendent is provided a comprehensive evaluation based upon his/her educational leadership with every impacted stakeholder in the district.

With this service, the Association will:

• Utilize the NASB Leadership Encompass 360 as your superintendent evaluation
• We’ll work collaboratively with your board to define an evaluation timeline that aligns to board policy and/or contract language
•  We will distribute the link to the superintendent to complete a self-assessment
•  We will distribute evaluations to internal stakeholders (administration, board, certified staff, classified staff, and students) and external stakeholders (community and parents)
•  Our team will be responsible for sending all reminders to stakeholders prior to the deadlines
•  We will create a comprehensive and comparative evaluation report to forward to the board president

Price based on enrollment. Contact the Board Leadership department at (800) 422-4572 for more information.

Why was this service developed?

NASB’s Board Leadership department has traditionally worked with school boards and their superintendents by providing sample superintendent evaluations that cover most all duties and responsibilities of the educational leader. However, in 2017, a school board and superintendent requested that we assist the board in the development of a 360-superintendent evaluation in order to include internal and external stakeholders in the evaluation process. The Board Leadership team has worked hard to develop this tool and is now excited to offer this service to all of NASB’s members.
