HOS Annual Review and Evaluation

Nina presented this committee with a draft of her HOS Goals for 2018-2019 to read and discuss.  Committee members asked questions, made comments and recommendations. Nina will present this draft to the BOT at the next meeting for approval.


The DESE has revised their Evaluation Process (in draft form as of now)  so this committee will look at the new document to determine if and how MCCPS will revise our Evaluation documents.
Action item:  Artie will email committee members the new DESE proposed rubric to review for discussion of how we would like to deal with any changes.  This will be discusses at the next Personnel Committee meeting.

B.

SUCCESSION PLAN

Artie sent out a draft to this committee via email for review.  We need to decide on the areas marked in grey including:
1) Succession of personnel to fill HOS role in an emergency:  Bill Sullivan will be next in line as acting HOS.  If he is unable to serve, is on sabbatical, or leaves for some reason then the back up position would Matt Cronin (pending certification).  The Board would then determine next steps for an interim position or search.
2) Compensation:  An acting HOS may receive a temporary salary increase to be decided by the Board of Trustees.
3) Supervision of acting HOS:  the Chair of the Board and one other Board member will use the HOS Task checklists to ensure everything is being done.
4) Notifications of Emergency Succession: The acting HOS and the BOT will notify proper authorities including the DESE, Town and Government offices, Board of Health, Superintendent, Town Manager, Park and Recreation.  There will be pre-approved emails  written for notification to faculty and parents of Emergency Succession Plan and announcing an Emergency Board meeting within 48 hours.

Xhazzie Kindle moved and Patricia Rietti seconded a motion to present this draft Succession Plan to the Board of Trustees at the next meeting.
Motion passed unanimously.
