SUPERINTENDENT"S EVALUATION
At the end of the day, effective instruction is the first and foremost goal and responsibility of any school district. Mrs. Driver’s personal instructional leadership and collaboration with the district instructional administrators, principals, curriculum coaches, teachers and instructional assistants is reaping significant gains and opportunities for our students. CCES being ranked as a Green School two years in a row shows consistent achievement and growth. CCMS going from a Yellow School to a Blue School in one year shows a strong commitment to rapid improvement. Adding a curriculum coach to CCHS is providing an additional support to their instruction. Her relationships with educators across the state, but especially in our region, paid a huge dividend when she was able to secure a strong instructional leader as the interim High School Principal (a former CCHS principal who went on to serve as the strict instructional administrator administer for an adjoining district and retired as their superintendent.) However, her inclusive leadership goes far beyond instruction to included all of our Rocket Team members, students, families and community. Mrs. Driver is truly a strong leader in all 7 standards. It is an honor for our Board to serve our students, staff, families and community with her.
