The How and Why of Superintendent Evaluation
Yes, it’s required by law. Even so, the school board that understands its leadership role will recognize the superintendent evaluation process as a priceless opportunity to advance the district, fortify the board-superintendent relationship, and model professionalism. In this session, familiarize yourself with the legal basics of superintendent evaluation and consider options for creating a collaborative process from identifying goals through conducting the summative evaluation.

Accountability Unlocked: What Every School Board Member Needs to Know About D/F Ratings, Oversight, and School Improvement
Need a clear, accessible overview of Texas’ A–F system, how D/F ratings accumulate, and why upcoming 2025 guidance matters? We unpack the “three Ds rule,” “three Fs rule,” and when accountability clocks pause or reset. Trustees also learn how intervention stages — from LIPs to Turnaround Plans — connect to the Effective Schools Framework. The session shows how strong governance drives improvement, prevents escalation, and supports long-term student success.
