Approve Appointees to the 25-26 District Certified Evaluation Appeals Committee
The state regulation on the evaluation of certified personnel, KRS 156.557 and 704 KAR 3:345 require the local board of education to appoint its representatives to the Local Evaluation Appeals Panel.
As part of our district's evaluation process, an Evaluation Appeals Panel is established each year. This is an important element in the evaluation process; it ensures that evaluation process and guidelines have been followed, and it provides a process to ascertain whether an employee has been fairly evaluated in his/her summative evaluation.
The Evaluation Appeals Panel is made up of three members - all certified staff members. Two members of the three-member team are elected by the certified staff members in the district. The third member is appointed by the Board of Education.
The certified staff members have selected the following to serve on the panel for this school year:
Lisa Lenberger
Kristin Willett
Chris Appelman, alternate
Greg Spears, alternate
The Board of Education is required to appoint the third member of the panel and an alternate. Mr. Paul M. Mullins would like to recommend Cain Alvey, Director of Special Programs, to serve as the Appeals Panel member and Travis Gay, Director of Student Services, to serve as the alternate.
