The school board has the responsibility to annually evaluate the superintendent’s performance. Evaluation is more effective when the board and superintendent work together. A process that occurs throughout the year helps guide the school district's key work and supports the superintendent's continuous improvement.

The following resources were developed with input from a committee of board presidents and superintendents and governance teams that participated in the 2023-2024 pilot program. They are based on the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education superintendent evaluation resources (2022 and 2013).
