Doing so robs the public of the opportunity to offer input on motions and robs the Board of the value of that input. It is contrary to the Board's stated values of transparency and engagement. It also robs the Board of additional needed time to consider motions.<br /><br />It should only be done when the action is extraordinarily urgent and immediate action is in the best interest of the District. Even in those cases, the Board owes the public an explanation of the urgency and a justification for the short-cut. No such explanation or justification is offered in the Board Action Report. In fact, the BAR doesn't even make reference to it.<br /><br />There is no urgency here. The principals are not going to walk off the job if their CBA goes another couple weeks before it's approved. There is no urgency, and the motion should not be introduced and acted upon at the same meeting.<br /><br />Principal evaluation and accountability are a keen concern for the public.<br /><br />There is a summary of the changes in the Principals' Collective Bargaining Agreement.<br /><br />I'm not impressed. This accountability is not nearly as sharp as the accountability for teachers or students. With this agreement it will be frozen in this state for three years while principal accountability is rapidly evolving.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
