Evaluation of Ancillary Staff. Section 13.1 The following sections apply to non-tenure eligible staff only. The evaluation process for tenure eligible teaching staff shall be governed by Board Policy and the corresponding administrative guidelines. All monitoring or observations, including the use of closed circuit television, audio systems, and similar devices when used for ancillary staff evaluation, shall be conducted openly with the full knowledge of the ancillary staff. The administration must deal openly and on a continuing basis with perceived problems concerning ancillary staff performance. That criterion outlined on the evaluation form and standards of measurement used must be shared with the ancillary staff by the administration at a meeting. Any ancillary staff missing said meeting will be responsible for obtaining the criteria and standards of measure from the building administrator.
Section 13.2 Evaluations of ancillary staff shall be conducted by the ancillary staff 's immediate supervisor or an administrator working in the same building. An ancillary staff or the building administrator may request such evaluation to be conducted by a central office administrator. The request will be granted upon mutual agreement between the Association and Superintendent.
Evaluation of Ancillary Staff. The evaluation of the work and performance of all ancillary staff is the right and responsibility of the Administration. The District and the Association agree that evaluation is necessary for the continuous improvement of instruction, for reinforcement of good performance and for the identification of those areas for which ancillary staff may need assistance. The evaluation process shall provide for the use of recommendations for improvement and assistance to the ancillary staff. Details of the evaluation process, evaluation forms and the ancillary staff’s general responsibilities are to be negotiated between the District and KEA. Every ancillary staff shall be provided a copy of this document at the beginning of the school year, or at the time of hire for a new ancillary staff and shall be provided training in the evaluation process. The “Framework” and all forms of the evaluation process shall also be available online, including specific rubrics for Guidance Counselors, School Social Workers, Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists and School Nurses. Forms may be completed electronically, but printed copies must be filed with Human Resources, where required.
