Accountability of the Superintendent 3.2

The Superintendent is the Board’s only link to the operation of the district. All authority over and accountability of staff is considered to be the responsibility of the superintendent.

Accordingly:

1) The Board will never give instructions to persons who report directly or indirectly to the Superintendent.

2) The Board will not formally evaluate any staff member other than the Superintendent.

3) Except as required by law or negotiated agreement, the Board will not participate in decisions or actions involving the hiring of any employee other than the Superintendent, Educational and Curriculum Director, Support Services Coordinator, Business Manager, Director of Facilities, and principals.

4) Except as required by law or negotiated agreement, the Board will not participate in decisions or actions involving the evaluating, disciplining, or dismissal of any employee other than the Superintendent. (Individual Board members are allowed to participate in the hiring process on the same terms as other citizens.)
