[Winona Online Democracy] I agree that evaluations should be signed, but I don't think they should be turned in to the secretary of the person evaluated.
I however feel inadequate to evaluate the superintendent, as all I know is what the newspaper reports. I have a friend Tor Dahl who does productivity consulting and is a professor at he U of M. If you check his web site www.tordahl.com and his work with one of the metro school districts to get everyone involved in increasing productivity. We need to find a way to support the district so we can improve our productivity. We need a leader people can believe is doing the best for the community. It is hard when we all have doubts about the way the referendum passed and now still don't see the referendum solution as accomplishing anything. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 21, 2006 11:08 AM To: 'LindaF'; [email protected]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Winona] School Board [Winona Online Democracy] --Tom, a better question might be : what good will come from a private evaluation? Will it be a legitamite evaluation when the process itself is flawed? The direct reports are to do the evaluation of Mr. Durand. The school board chairman said his preference would be for them to voluntarily sign their evaluation forms, but it was not a requirement. After the evaluation forms are completed they are to be turned in to Durand's secretary, who will then check them off the list. Does that sound like the way we want this process to be done? A flawed process will produce flawed results. I watched the board meeting this week and was very upset when Natalie Siderius read her statement regarding the teachers showing up at the public comment session and presenting statements to the board. Why does this board want to restrict the input of the teachers? Why has the superintendent told teachers that they cannot contact board members? Why was the high school staff told they could not discuss certain issues and certain people?
