Norristown Area CSD
“We become what we think about…what gets measured, gets done. SuperEval helps with both.”
Menands UFSD
“It saved hours of my time as far as efficiency sake. You know, I sed to collect all of everybody’s notes and you know basically some of it I could read. Some of it was long and I’d have to actually do that self-analysis of that anaylsis mysef.
Croton-Harmon Union Free School District
“Perhaps one of the most significant outcomes of using SuperEval is the rich conversations that take place between and among the superintendent and board members. At the end of the process, we were able to engage in deep conversations regarding the role of superintendent and board and the future direction of the school district. Most importantly, the conversations were guided by the evidence (comments and documents) generated as part of the process. The ultimate result is growth, the primary goal of the evaluation process.”
Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES
“My mantra is talking about feedback, using, and having effective feedback. That means from superintendent to administrator, administrator to teacher, teachers to students and parents to the community, and it also means the board to me.”
Owen J. Roberts SD
“I highly recommend it to any of my colleagues. Even if they’re not using it for their own personal evaluation, the ease of value I evaluate my gosh, I don’t even know it’s upwards of 12 to 15 other administrators, myself and the ease the common language that we talk in education, you know, we have our own education speak as they say. And so the evaluation aligns with those expectations and that’s really important that, you know, you, you go, you do so much work with your administrative team on developing those expectations for them and for your teaching staff. and then when you go to evaluate at the end of the year, you use something completely different to do the evaluation, where using SuperEval and the rubrics that are available really helps to make that a much more valuable process for you and for anybody that you’re supervising. “
Norristown Area CSD
“I can’t recommend SuperEval highly enough because of the feedback and efficiency it brought to my work and the evaluation process.”
Croton-Harmon UFSD
When you get all of the information from your board you have a tool that’s right there that puts all comments together. It makes it much easier to come out with a final report that the board can discuss.
Bridgehampton UFSD
SuperEval has totally transformed the superintendent’s evaluation system for my Board of Education and for me. SuperEval provides an easy to use platform for the gathering of evidence and reflection, in real time, that ultimately leads to a comprehensive Superintendent Evaluation, based on research based standards of performance established by the New York Council of School Superintendents (NYSCOSS). Once completed the system requires a simple click to send and submit to the entire board of education. The ease of use paired with enormous time savings makes SuperEval a must have for all Board/Superintendent teams.
Peru CSD
It [board self-evaluation in SuperEval] was an excellent tool for all to give input and then have it summarized. I liked the suggestions for goals and we are using some.
Putnam Northern Westchester BOCES
“SuperEval is a high quality, objective assessment suite that has changed the landscape of how evaluations for Superintendents and their leadership teams are accomplished. The suite includes aligned, robust, user friendly assessment tools that provide school districts with an effective and efficient way to evaluate key leadership positions with confidence and ease.”
Milton Area SD
“The SuperEval tool really assists us in gathering that evidence and codifying it from the first day of the new school year that you’re not trying to remember what happened. It’s all there, right before you and really generates substantive conversation for us. Our dialogue significantly changed. It was more generative, it was productive and it really showed the celebrations that we experienced over a course of a year. It became more seamless because everything was at our fingertips. It was compiled, it was ready and we could talk and reflect about our school year”
Retired Superintendent and Partner, Educational Leadership Solutions
SuperEval is an impressive tool that provides a process for the superintendent and the Board of Education to have meaningful and targeted conversations that will lead to performance improvements and better learning opportunities for all students.
Broome, Delaware, Tioga BOCES
“I have gone through two cycles of my evaluation using SuperEval and I find it to be easy and helpful in communicating my activities and accomplishments.”
Norristown Area CSD
“SuperEval gives a superintendent a better global perspective of what’s going on in the district.”
Hazleton Area SD
“SuperEval has been a great addition to our evaluation process. We have a large number of administrators who require evaluations. SuperEval has lessened the amount of time i need to process their assessments. Additionally, from a superintendent board perspective, the time it has taken to complete my yearly evaluation has been diminished as well. The program permits the archival of those assessments as well, which provides a great resource for future needs. Thanks so much for reaching out! I will definitely give you a ring if something comes up! ! “
Bolivar-Richburg CSD
“Overall, using SuperEval for evaluating my principals work great! What I really liked is the final summary report that allows for APPR calculated scores. That was a very nice upgrade!”
Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES
“when we do the evaluation process, we actually pull up all of the board’s feedback at one time on a screen.
So, all of the board members have to own what they wrote and everybody can see what everybody wrote in terms of feedback. It’s not so much what they said then because it’s all there and they have to own it, but it becomes a conversation about that particular competency and that makes it so much more deep.”
Sidney CSD
“SuperEval has been a great tool this year. Not only did I use it for my evaluation, but I also used it for our Assistant Superintendent, Director of School Improvement and School Business Administrator. I especially like the chat feature and how efficient support is provided. I have used the chat feature to change board members, upload ASBO’s rubric and support help. All three times the support was exceptional. SuperEval is a great tool with great support”
Wayland-Cohocton SD
“SuperEval has been a great tool and valuable process for us to use as a district. Your team has been a great support and I thank you for all the help.”
Menands UFSD
“It saved hours of my time as far as efficiency sake. You know, I sed to collect all of everybody’s notes and you know basically some of it I could read. Some of it was long and I’d have to actually do that self-analysis of that anaylsis mysef.
Milton Area SD
“I saw a stronger cohesiveness [of the leadership team] because of SuperEval.”
Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES
“In my former district, were one of the districts that uses a mid-year process as well as an end-of-year review. So, it was nice to be able to spend time in the first half of the school year putting documents and files up for the board to see and use, and then be able to have a conversation surrounding those at mid-year as well as continue that and revise and modify that for the end-of-year.”
Randolph Academy
“we’ve always had strong communication between the Board of Ed and myself. I think that SuperEval’s streamlined the focus of our communication around the evaluation process, and in particular, the priorities or goals for the next year.”
Croton-Harmon UFSD
When you get all of the information from your board you have a tool that’s right there that puts all comments together. It makes it much easier to come out with a final report that the board can discuss.
Grand Island CSD
“I am absolutely thrilled to learn that SuperEval has partnered with ASBO New York to include the School Business Official Evaluation rubric. Ever since I began using SuperEval for my evaluation with the Board of Education, I quickly saw the potential benefits of using the same system with my cabinet level administrative team. The flexibility, ease and practical use of this tool within SuperEval is essential to the future success of your District and your school business official.”
Superintendent, Norristown Area School District
An evaluation shouldn’t be a chore…it should be an opportunity for the superintendent needed and timely feedback to help lead the district meaningfully. SuperEval has allowed me to do that.
Bolivar-Richburg SD
“SuperEval’s ease of use, because it is a web-based product, it made it very easy and accessible for all users, not just myself, but also my board members.”
Bolivar-Richburg SD
“I would strongly recommend SuperEval not only for your first superintendency but those seasoned superintendents because it does provide an objective rubric and all parties are actively involved in the evaluation process.”
Monticello CSD
“So just this week our evaluations were due. I launched into mine without one minute of training. No problem. The program is smart, intuitive, and easy to navigate, it really needs no explanation. Loving the experience so far.”
Norristown Area SD
“So my recommendation for anybody that is either struggling to get evaluation done, this is your solution in my opinion. If you’re looking for something that is going to give you a better experience, I would say, reach out and give SuperEval a try. My experience was absolutely outstanding and you know, we look forward to using the product for the foreseeable future. “
Bolivar-Richburg SD
“Using SuperEval provided the rubric for conversations. It provided me to look at certain areas and actually critique myself. I found that I was critiquing myself even harder or harsher than the board thought I was doing when it came to the job. But it was that back and forth communication when we came to the end of the eval that we’re able to sit down and talk about expectations and things that went good or bad and how we can see improvement and where we want to guide the district as a team.”
Franklin Square UFSD
The tool worked great this past year. The Board was very impressed, and I found the tool to be quite helpful with my own self-evaluation and team evaluations
Croton-Harmon Union Free School District
I believe [SuperEval] has a huge positive impact on superintendents.
Retired Superintendent and Partner, Educational Leadership Solutions
In my years of coaching, the question of ‘What’s considered an effective evaluation instrument for superintendents?’ has been asked. SuperEval’s approach employs an evaluation process that keeps the superintendent and board focused.
Milton Area SD
“SuperEval causes reflective practice….it either authenticates or shows you where the gaps are in leadership.”
Charter School for Applied Technology
“SuperEval is not only just a tool, it is a roadmap that needs to be followed for both the board and superintendent as it will only help ensure success.”
Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES
“So, it makes it easy to use throughout the year. You’re populating the fields as you go rather than spending huge amounts of time at the end of the year or at mid-year constructing a document.”
Hazleton Area SD
“it’s a very robust system. It allows you, or a board or whomever, or your administrative team to upload pertinent documents that provides the pathway to the leadership or within the leadership role. And it’s very hands on, very intuitive and very easy to navigate. And it’s something that would, i think would really help and support the future role of the leadershipin your district. I’ll be happy to walk you through it. You know, i’d be happy to show you the program itself and show you exactly what is in there and what it looks like and how easy it is to navigate and utilize. “
Otsego Northern Catskills BOCES (Fomerly of Alexander CSD)
“SuperEval allows people to do is to put together a reflective portfolio of their work and allows them then to align that work to what leadership really means and that’s captured in the rubric.”
Moravia CSD
“We found the tool to be very helpful and provided the ability for the board to have in depth discussions even when we had no significant discrepancies. I have been on the school board for 9 years and I believe this gives the superintendent the most feedback in all my years.”
Hazleton Area SD
Having SuperEval at my fingertips to not only provide efficient and effective communication to my School Board regarding my evaluation, I also have the same productivity with my administrative staff members concerning their evaluations. SuperEval has been a tremendous timesaver for everyone. Additionally, the staff members at SuperEval are very supportive and prompt in responding to any questions I may have concerning the system. The Hazleton Area School District is quite large. Nothing that, the system easily accommodates all of our needs. I highly recommend SuperEval!
Norristown Area CSD
“Having a digital tool that is respectful of everyone’s time, easy to use, is rich in feedback, is rich in information, is a very timely system, it has allowed [the leadership team] to identify what’s important to our community.”
Norristown Area SD
“One, it is a user friendly, streamlined process that will all but guarantee that the superintendent’s evaluation will get done on time. And I know speaking from colleagues that is a challenge every single year. Board members ihave a contractual obligation to make sure the superintendent annually and legally is evaluated and that information is posted on the website. And I think SuperEval does it in a way that is again, it is user friendly and it is data rich for the process. The second one, again, for superintendents that may feel their board is not telling them what the expectations are or what it is. This process 100% we’ll say forces the conversation. Even though you’re not sitting down with all nine board members one-on-one, but it forces them to sit there and say, how is my superintendent doing with communication, strategic leadership, financial this, staffing, cultural proficiency and whatever those agreed upon performance measures are because of the way that each board member has to respond. Not only will with a category rating, but that that integral feedback, that justification for that. I would a hundred percent compliment SuperEval, Your entire team is the customer service was outstanding”
LaFayette CSD
“SuperEval is the way to do superintendent evaluations. It is a robust, dynamic system that allows the superintendent to start building her portfolio on the first day of the school year then add or revise until the Board members contribute their feedback. The ability to incorporate personalized district goals as well as to upload files and links are just two of this program’s many great features. Michael Horning, Jr. went out of his way to ensure the system’s ease of use by providing friendly and helpful telephone and email support including a slideshow that introduces Board members to SuperEval. He was also receptive to suggested adjustments. If you create paperless Board agendas and wonder how you ever did it the old way, you will feel the same way about SuperEval. I give it my highest recommendation. “
Owen J. Roberts SD
“With SuperEval, you get feedback and that’s really what helps us to grow as individuals, but also as professionals is for feedback. it’s not so much that we need pats on the back, but we do need constructive feedback in order to be able to perform to the expectations of our school board. And so it [SuperEval] provides that. “
Rochester City SD; gave testimonial when sup at Brockport CSD
“SuperEval encourages dialogue, it really allows you to load a significant amount of evidence and information into the system, so, I unequivocally would recommend it and really enjoyed the process.”
SuperEval is an easy to use digital tool that allows both the Superintendent and the Board of Education to track evidence of effective leadership as it relates to district goals and Superintendent standards of performance. The process is focused, not arbitrary, which leads to better outcomes for all, especially students.
Kenmore Town of Tonawanda
“The ease of use of the tool is nice and I think it’s actually encourgaing for people to be able to startit and then come back to it and they feel like that user interface is so friendly..”
It’s accessible to my board members. It really does a lot of the work for me so it allows me to facilitate dialogue, which is what you really want to happen for the evaluation. And I think the answers are more thoughtful because they’re used to being on a computer instead of handwriting them out ad it’s just a nice way to bring the information together. I love it. I hope everybody uses it.”
Rochester City SD; gave testimonial when sup at Brockport CSD
“the SuperEval process clearly articulates what the expectations are, what needs to be completed in each one of the domains or topics, then allows opportunities for both the superintendent and board members individually or collectively to submit evidence in each one of the domains.”
Bolivar-Richburg SD
“One of the results of SuperEval that I wasn’t expecting but was very surprised by was the fact that it did create conversations between myself and my board. They were very critical conversations and yet we talked about things which we like, things that we need to improve upon.”
Gates Chili (Formerly - Batavia City School District)
I like the fact that once this board was done with their individual assessment of the superintendent, that it’s literally you click a button and the report is generated.
Gates Chili (Formerly - Batavia City School District)
“SuperEval really made a difference in the process and in the timeliness of the evaluation. Rather than a three to four-month period, we were done in less than 30 days.”
“This allows me to really make it a year-long reflective document that will have impact.”
Norristown Area SD
“The breadth and depth of feedback that I got was just absolutely incredible. So when we did sit down with the the board president to do the formal review, I had the opportunity to preread everything and again, it was a really respectful use of both of our time that we could say, you know, in agreement, here are the things that we see we’re doing well. Here’s some areas that we would want to see growth in the district and, growth you know, we expect the superintendent to lead. And again, I think just the everything in terms of the way the platform was used from a user experience really facilitated that and facilitated it well. “
Otsego Northern Catskills BOCES (Fomerly of Alexander CSD)
“The employees drive the process. The evaluator, the supervisor is there as coach thought partner, and it’s all about the work of moving the district forward.”
Golf School District #67 (IL)
As a superintendent, it is so important to have a quality evaluation instrument that is goal-aligned, reflective, and evidenced-based. This past year I introduced SuperEval to my Board and we found it to be easy to use and very efficient. I highly recommend it all superintendents.
Otsego Northern Catskills BOCES (Fomerly of Alexander CSD)
“How do we lead? What is leadership? So, if we are evaluating with leadership in mind, the rubric for reflection and growth really allows us to have those conversations with that collective language and understanding.”
Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES
“I not only recommend it. I continually recommend it, the SuperEval process, and the SuperEval program to my colleagues and board members because of the ease of use and the transparency of use.”
Cattaraugus, Allegany, Erie, and Wyoming BOCES
“SuperEval is an invaluable tool designed to enhance the evaluation process of the superintendent. Not only is it simple and streamlined to use, but It supports an evidence based process that allows the board and superintendent to mutually establish measurable goals and priorities. It incorporates both self assessment and reflective practice and, ultimately, better communication and understandings between the board and superintendent as they strive to prioritize initiatives for the district. I would highly recommend boards and superintendents consider this tool! “
Gates Chili (Formerly - Batavia City School District)
This evaluation tool allows a board member to really see the different aspects of the superintendency [sic] and get to see the whole picture or big picture of what’s going on and how well or how not well the superintendent may or may have not done that year. It really makes it easy for everyone to understand what is being evaluated, how, and ultimately, what the final rating is.
Gates Chili (Formerly - Batavia City School District)
The ease of use for a superintendent is tremendous. I think what it surprised me the most was the ease of compiling everything together for our board president.
Norristown Area SD
I would a hundred percent recommend the product. It’s been a lifesaver for me.
Otsego Northern Catskills BOCES (Fomerly of Alexander CSD)
“SuperEval is premised on the notion that self-reflection is one of the most critical leadership skills. And if we believe in leadership as a concept and we engage in our practice from that conceptual level, then we need to be constantly engaged in reflection.”
New Hartford CSD; former Deputy Commissioner of NYSED.
“In the seventeen years I’ve been a superintendent, this was the easiest process I’ve experienced and it was my best evaluation.”
Milton Area SD
“SuperEval is about feedback and efficiency”
MCIU
“I am so excited that SuperEval is available to all of our superintendents [in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania].”
Hazleton Area SD
“i would definitely recommend it to a colleague. At first the administrators are like, oh my gosh, another training, you know, another change, another program. But once we started using it, once i basically kind of trained them on it and said, here, you know, this is how easy it is, they’ve jumped on it. And they’re really impressed with it at the administrative level, again, trying to get the board to do what they’re asked to do is sometimes a little difficult, but the ones that have used it, have found it to be a very easy to navigate and to utilize in providing me with some feedback. “
Darien Public School District #61 (IL)
As an educator, having an evaluation system that can be used by all stakeholders and keep everyone abreast on the superintendent’s performance is just what SuperEval does. It provides a self-directed, user-friendly approach to goal-setting, reflection, and an evidence-based evaluation.
Ellicottville
“It was helpful in giving us the platform to organize our thoughts in preparation for our Board retreat. It was great to be able to just run the report instead of collecting everything and organizing it on our own.”
Kenmore Town of Tonawanda
“The ease of use of the tool is nice and I think it’s actually encourgaing for people to be able to startit and then come back to it and they feel like that user interface is so friendly..”
It’s accessible to my board members. It really does a lot of the work for me so it allows me to facilitate dialogue, which is what you really want to happen for the evaluation. And I think the answers are more thoughtful because they’re used to being on a computer instead of handwriting them out ad it’s just a nice way to bring the information together. I love it. I hope everybody uses it.”
Milton Area SD
” My biggest surprise for SuperEval, I would say is the ease and the use of the tool. It’s simple to use, it’s user friendly to be able to navigate through it is seamless. As you know, when you’re manually preparing for your evaluation, it’s a chore. It’s like, Oh gosh, it’s evaluation time. I have to remember what I did last year. What did we do in December when we celebrated day 100? But here we are with this tool that you navigate through, it helps you think about your work. It allows you to easily upload your work. The language is there, that’s in alignment with the leadership standards and for me and my team, that was wonderful. It just really made the process enjoyable, but also affirming. “
Amherst CSD
Lorry and I both enjoyed working with you on getting the Amherst BOE to use SuperEval. On behalf of our entire BOE I would say that your product was easy to learn and user friendly. It was comprehensive in terms of the items you evaluate the superintendent on. Our review process was vastly improved compared to our previous years of evaluating the superintendent. The training you provide was great and the support online when we had questions was quick and efficient. Your program definitely saved us a lot of time and energy as Board members.
Rochester City SD; gave testimonial when sup at Brockport CSD
“The SuperEval process really is very simple and it’s streamlined, I think that’s what both attracted myself and my board of education to the product. It outlines step by step what you need to do. What’s nice is you determine what the timelines are for the development of goals, when things need to be submitted by both the superintendent and the board, then all of that is loaded and automated into the system. You receive email communication, that just really makes things very simple.”
Monticello CSD
“So just this week our evaluations were due. I launched into mine without one minute of training. No problem. The program is smart, intuitive, and easy to navigate, it really needs no explanation. Loving the experience so far.”
Gates Chili (Formerly - Batavia City School District)
“The process previously would take months from beginning to end with the board. This process basically took the board less than a month to complete. it allowed the board to concentrate more on business other than the superintendent’s evaluation which is nice.”
“For myself, it really forced me to be even more reflective with the gathering of evidence to support my self-reflection and ratings, and then it allowed the board to look at those as well as documents they may have provided in their reflection on how I did this year. So, it’s really freed up more time to do the things that we’re supposed to be doing which is concentrating on the kids.”
Milton Area SD
Reflecting deeply together in the evaluation process is critical to the growth of the professional and the organization. Using the SuperEval tool, the evaluation process is driven by leadership standards, personal and evaluator reflections and evidence to support the discussion. A year of work is captured in the tool, visibly illuminating the accomplishments and successes of the administrator. It also affords opportunities for discussion about areas of growth in the upcoming year. Rich and generative conversation permeates the evaluation process, cultivating excitement about what happened in the prior year and what the future holds. We loved the opportunity that this tool offered us as an administrative team.
Randolph Academy
“I would definitely recommend SuperEval to other leadership teams. I think that it really was a more efficient process for the board. I think my investment of time upfront was a little bit more than I expected, but paid off greatly.”
Tonawanda City SD
SuperEval was extremely beneficial to me during my recent BOE evaluation. The Superintendent Self Evaluation Model allowed me to provide the BOE with information detailing my accomplishments during the school year. They were able to use my self evaluation document to properly assess my work. I highly recommend SuperEval as an excellent superintendent evaluation tool. The NYSCOSS evaluation template aligns perfectly with SuperEval.
Royalton-Hartland CSD
“The tool has exceeded expectations to date. I have used it with my leadership team to set goals and guide our quarterly reviews.”
Amherst CSD
Lorry and I both enjoyed working with you on getting the Amherst BOE to use SuperEval. On behalf of our entire BOE I would say that your product was easy to learn and user friendly. It was comprehensive in terms of the items you evaluate the superintendent on. Our review process was vastly improved compared to our previous years of evaluating the superintendent. The training you provide was great and the support online when we had questions was quick and efficient. Your program definitely saved us a lot of time and energy as Board members.
Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES
“The job is bottomless as it is. So, when there is a tool that can contribute to a more effective and efficient way of doing your job, especially that important component of evaluation, then this becomes a critical factor because it’s helpful in mitigating time that I can spend elsewhere or with my family”
MCIU
“There’s a quote from Ray Jorgenson, ‘The learning is in the conversation.’ SuperEval drives that conversation.”
Milton Area SD
“The quality of conversation [between members of the leadership team] was elevated because of Supereval.”
Norristown Area CSD
“An evaluation shouldn’t be a chore…it should be an opportunity for the superintendent needed and timely feedback to help lead the district meaningfully. SuperEval has allowed me to do that.”
Peru CSD
It [board self-evaluation in SuperEval] was an excellent tool for all to give input and then have it summarized. I liked the suggestions for goals and we are using some.
Highland Falls- Fort Montgomery CSD
“SuperEval was great and the process was smooth, even with the Board meeting remotely. Thanks!”
Owen J. Roberts SD
“The ease of use is exceptional, there is the ability to chat. So if you’re working on it as whether you’re the superintendent or the board and you’re struggling to understand whatever it is you do next, there’s live chat. And we’ve been very pleased with the level of support that we’ve received ever since we’ve adopted this tool. “
Randolph Academy
“I have the opportunity to rate myself and provide evidence that supports that rating. It really changed my position from being one of defending my performance to asserting what my performance was. In the end, my board rated me much higher than I rated myself. I think that I’m walking away from our first full year use of SuperEval feeling very deeply appreciated by my Board of Education. That’s a wonderful outcome.”
Norristown Area SD
“I’m pleased to say SuperEval gave us a mechanism to make sure that my evaluation was done on time. So for the first time in 4 years, this past June, the board followed the contractually agreed upon process and actually met the deadline. I was able to publicly announce and post that process. The other thing that I was particularly was very pleased with with SuperEval was just the nature of the platform itself gave me really good and rich feedback across all six objective performance statements and those key indicators. “
Nyack UFSD
“Last year’s evaluation [guided by SuperEval] was the most productive evaluation in the 21 years I’ve been in the superintendent’s position. I received a lot of great feedback. I love [SuperEval]…it’s the best [evaluation tool] I’ve seen while being a superintendent.”
Norristown Area CSD
“If you don’t get the feedback and reflect on it, you’re never going to get [the leadership team] pointing in the same direction. SuperEval gives you that feedback.”
Auburn Enlarged CSD
“The system is awesome and makes the evaluation process so easy.”
Fillmore CSD
“This is the first year we used SuperEval. The way the program is formatted made it easy to add evidence and the rating marks as the Superintendent. In addition, the Board of Education was able to view my comments and ratings as well as add their own comments and ratings after watching the tutorial video and using the helpful pop up tips that appear on each page. In the past, the Board President would have to compile all of the ratings and comments, but now SuperEval does it for you. SuperEval is an effective evaluation tool that you and your board members will want to try. “
Superintendent, Bensalem Township School District
“SuperEval has been incredibly helpful in supporting the district’s attention to our mission. Collaborative goal setting and associated monitoring of progress has been essential to district and professional improvement. SuperEval combines a user-friendly, intuitive format with a process that is becoming institutionalized here.”
Gates Chili (Formerly - Batavia City School District)
I think what it surprised me the most was the ease of compiling everything together for our board president. Being a board president is not the glamorous job it may sound like and to be able to allow our board president to get that document done quickly, then read through it, check it, and be able to share it me in a very timely manner is very valuable, especially in this day and age of everybody wants something yesterday.
“With SuperEval, the whole obstruction to a successful reflective process is removed.”
Rochester City SD
“The favorite feature of mine relative to SuperEval is the ability to upload documents, to include PDFs, to submit social media links or even videos. My job is very comprehensive as a superintendent, and last year in particular, there was a lot that I was involved in both in as well as outside of our school district, and having the variability or that opportunity to have multi mediums that I could submit as evidence was very, very helpful, and the board really appreciated that.”
Otsego Northern Catskills BOCES (Fomerly of Alexander CSD)
“I don’t believe in an evaluation process that compels people to defend their practice. I think that that’s an antiquated model of evaluation. I believe that the person being evaluated should drive the evaluation process. There should be self-reflection as a critical leadership skill.”
Cattaraugus-Allegany BOCES
“feedback being critical, I want that, I need that, and our ability, like I said, to put up everybody’s comments at one time and engendering a conversation that is real feedback, is the most beneficial thing I could get as a superintendent in terms of growth and development.”
Norristown Area CSD
“The biggest challenge is time. SuperEval is a great time saver; it’s an efficient use of everyone’s very valuable time.”
Milton Area SD
“[SuperEval] is a true authentication of work.”
Moravia CSD
“We found the tool to be very helpful and provided the ability for the board to have in depth discussions even when we had no significant discrepancies. I have been on the school board for 9 years and I believe this gives the superintendent the most feedback in all my years.”
Ellicottville
“It was helpful in giving us the platform to organize our thoughts in preparation for our Board retreat. It was great to be able to just run the report instead of collecting everything and organizing it on our own.”
