School Board Evaluation (10 minutes)
Speaker(s):
Board Chair Ben Phillip
Description:
As the entity legally charged with governing a school district, each school board is responsible to its community for governing efficiently and leading effectively to provide for equitable education, resulting in high student achievement. Effective school boards engage in a continuing process of self-assessment and use the results to identify opportunities for improvement. Using the MSBA five standards of school board leadership (conduct & ethics, vision, structure, accountability, advocacy & communication), an evaluation toll was developed for the St. Anthony-New Brighton school board to identify effectiveness and opportunities for improvement. The tool will be disseminated to board members. The results will be discussed at an upcoming work session. |
