Synopsis
|
Grievant was presented a four-page plan of assistance citing eight coaching performance deficiencies. The document included a general statement, a program of activities, monitoring system and final evaluation date. It did not relate the deficiencies to an evaluation instrument used to rate expected performances, but it did include a notice that unsuccessful performance of the plan could result in termination of Grievant's coaching contract. DECISION: Grievant has proven that state and county evaluation policy was violated when school administrators presented him a plan of assistance at the onset of an evaluation process period. The plan was issued without benefit of recommendation of a trained evaluator having formally or informally observed and rated his performance on an evaluation instrument. Data compiled as a result of a survey among the populace does not fill the requirement and did not allow grievant to face accusers who may have criticized him.
