摘要:A disconnect exists between principal leadership expectations and the actual practice of supervision
and evaluation of principals. Increased principal responsibilities and rigorous standards require that a
new approach to principal evaluation be considered. The authors provide a framework for a multi-
dimensional approach to principal supervision and evaluation. This conceptual leadership evaluation
model provides a multi- step evaluation process that embeds (a) a supervisory relationship based on
trust, (b) selection of research-based leadership standards, (c) collection of performance data using
multi-dimensional approaches, and (d) a rubric for judgments and decisions based on principal
performance supported by the data. This article presents a framework or system of principal evaluation
built upon previous research and experience.
