Show moreThe annual written evaluation of public school principals is mandated by Florida State Statutes but it appeared that no investigation had been conducted into the state-wide status of this process. This unknown state-of-the- art condition lead to the central problem raised for solution in the study. What is the precise nature of the principal evaluation process throughout the State of Florida? This was designed as a descriptive, exploratory study which did not involve the development of new principal evaluation instruments. Specific questions to be undertaken and discussed in the study were: 1. What forms of evaluation design are currently being used? 2. What are the major tasks of principals, as defined in the districts' principal evaluation instruments? 3. What are the criteria, methods, and conditions of the principal evaluation process? 4. How congruent are the content and processes of the districts' principal evaluation systems with the theories proposed by authorities in the field? 5. How congruent are superintendents and principals perceptions regarding the principal evaluation process? To provide answers to the central problem and major questions the following research operations were conducted: 1. The collection, analysis, categorization, and summarization of Florida principal evaluation instruments. 2. The surveying of district superintendents and randomly selected principals to obtain additional data relevant to the study topic. 3. A review of the literature to determine practices and procedures that might be incorporated in a systematic principal appraisal process.
