What this document actually says
This policy, last revised September 13, 2022, defines the Superintendent's role as the district's chief executive officer. The Superintendent implements all Board decisions, manages both instructional and non-instructional school operations, and supports the Board's governance work. The Board sets clear expectations and goals for the Superintendent at the start of each evaluation year to focus on student learning, achievement, and district vision. While the Superintendent can delegate tasks to other staff members, they remain ultimately accountable to the Board for all operations. The policy establishes a framework for a productive Board-Superintendent relationship and provides a fair basis for holding the Superintendent accountable for district performance and outcomes.
What this means for your family
This policy ensures there's clear leadership accountability in the district. The Superintendent is responsible for implementing Board decisions that affect your child's education, from classroom instruction to daily school operations. When you have concerns about district programs, curriculum, or school management, the Superintendent is ultimately accountable for addressing these areas. The annual goal-setting process helps ensure leadership remains focused on improving student learning and achievement district-wide.
