School employees: principals: evaluation.

Abstract

Existing law establishes the Administrator Training Program, to be administered by the Superintendent of Public Instruction, with the approval of the State Board of Education. Existing law requires the Superintendent to award incentive funding from funds appropriated for that purpose, to provide instruction and training to school administrators in various areas, including, among others, school financial and personnel management, instructional leadership and management strategies, and the use of state and local pupil assessments. Existing law states the intent of the Legislature that local educational agencies give highest priority to training school administrators assigned to, and practicing in, high-priority or hard-to-staff schools. This bill would authorize a school district to evaluate a principal annually for the principal's first and second year of employment as a new principal and authorize additional evaluations, as specified. The bill would authorize the governing board of a school district to identify who will conduct the evaluation of each school principal. The bill would authorize the criteria for school principal evaluations to be based upon the California Professional Standards for Educational Leaders and to include evidence of, among other things, pupil academic growth, effective and comprehensive teacher evaluations, culturally responsive instructional strategies, the ability to analyze quality instructional strategies and provide effective feedback, and effective school management. The bill would authorize the use of specified federal carryover funds and certain other funds to implement this act.
