ADMINISTRATOR AND STAFF DEVELOPMENT PLAN In order to promote growth and development for first through third year administrators and staff members, a Formal Evaluation is conducted by their immediate supervisor during the first two years and a 360 Degree Survey (see below) during the third year. These evaluations will include a conference. Refer to the Administrator/Staff Performance Appraisal (Appendix E, E1, E2, E3) for areas of evaluation. The Illinois State Board of Education grants recognition status to schools based on the school’s compliance with relevant statues and administrative rules as evidenced in part by an onsite review. St. Francis High School is recognized as a non-public school with “Full Recognition”. In accordance with the ISBE 91-04A Nonpublic School Evaluation Instrument, the school’s personnel policies require: A formal evaluation performed at least every two years in terms of proficiency and competency. This requirement includes the principal and other instructional administrators. Reference(s): [23 Ill. Adm. Code 425.30(c)(5-7)] and [23 Ill. Adm. Code 425.30(c)(3)(B)] Therefore, administrator and staff members with five plus years of experience at St. Francis High School will complete one of the three models of development on an every other year rotation. The models are: Self-Evaluation (Appendix E, E1, E2, E3); 360 Degree Survey (Appendix F)—A 360 degree survey gathers feedback from other people with whom the team member works in order to provide a complete picture of perceptions. This model measures how others perceive a team member’s competencies, behaviors and character. Note: All 360 degree surveys are administered by a member of the President’s Council; Formal Evaluation (Appendix E, E1, E2, E3).
Cognia
Continuous school improvement as it relates to student learning and engagement is a primary focus of the school’s Cognia accreditation. This ongoing work empowers departments to collaborate and focus on new opportunities and optimal learning environments as it best suits their needs. Participation in the Cognia accreditation process is required for staff when applicable.
Individual Professional Development
Participation in the school’s professional development offerings, as appropriate, is expected. Participation in outside-of-school professional classes/workshops/seminars is encouraged.
