The board met in special called session to discuss superintendent Sam Dick’s evaluation and were scheduled to meet in closed session to discuss it, but met in open session when challenged. “Then we will do it in open session,” said board chairman Wayne Hatcher. “It’s no big deal on our part.” According to Kentucky Revised Statutes, a school board must discuss a superintendent’s evaluation in open session. School board members were given evaluation forms to take home at the end of the June regular monthly meeting and were to return them during Monday’s meeting. Two school board members had not completed the evaluation forms, but Hatcher said they could express their opinions on Dick’s performance during the meeting. “I had two that were submitted to me by board members. One gave all 3s, which exceeds requirements. Performance is exceptional and reflects a high degree of professionalism and accountability. Performance consistently exceeds expectations. In comparison to similar districts, performance is truly above the norm. I had another one that had probably 98 percent 3s and one that were 2s. So, that’s exceptionally good,” Hatcher said. The board evaluated Dick in community relationships, relationship with the board, business and finance, staff and personnel relationships, educational leadership, student achievement and personal qualities. School board members were asked to rank the superintendent in these areas by assigning numbers one through four, with one meaning he needs to make improvements in an area and three meaning he exceeds requirements. A ranking of four means not applicable in that area or too soon to be rated. Hatcher asked the school board members if they had any comments to make regarding Dick’s performance. J.T. Neeley, who was one of two board members who did not submit a completed evaluation form, praised Dick for a job well done. “Most of the things that Sam does are top of the line,” he said. “I don’t think there’s any question about that.” Neeley commended the superintendent for alerting the community about things taking place within the school district. “I think you do an excellent job,” he said. Hatcher praised Dick for having good community relationships, including with the school board. “He keeps us informed on issues, needs and operations of the district, and you disseminate information in a timely manner. We always have the information before us. You’re always getting us the information we need. You support policy that we establish. You have a positive working relationship with us,” he said.
