Philosophy/Purpose Statement Sample Clauses

Philosophy/Purpose Statement. We believe that the growth of our professional educators and our commitment to accountability are the keys to improving our schools. Performance evaluation is an important component of our plan to achieve the Sacramento City Unified School District mission. The performance evaluation system serves multiple purposes. It promotes the values, beliefs, and norms we care about. It promotes security, reduces political influences and promotes a sense of fairness. It also promotes caring, teamwork, communication and feedback. A most important purpose of the evaluation system is to improve employee performance. Performance improvement can best be achieved if we help every employee to succeed by recognizing good performance and by providing coaching, support, and help. We believe that the performance evaluation system is an important vehicle for making decisions about promotion, retention and reassignment. To achieve that end, performance expectations must be clear and feedback on performance must be specific and ongoing. Our system must promote the performance of all employees in management positions and withstand changes in leadership. We must provide appropriate orientation, training, and support and constantly evaluate the system and make necessary revisions to ensure that the evaluation system effectively achieves its objectives.
