School Leadership Suite

How leadership is experienced, and how it is evaluated

Parents, students, and staff show whether leadership feels trustworthy, caring, steady, and hopeful. Boards then evaluate the head of school and other administrators, and the school keeps an earlier read on families, staff, and alumni.

CSM handles licensing and contracts. Contact Dr. Hazeltine for a walkthrough, interpretation, or consulting.

Held together

Two readings, not one verdict

One reading is how the school community experiences leadership. The other is how boards and supervisors evaluate leaders, and how families and staff describe the relationship over time. The suite keeps those readings side by side.

How parents, students, and staff experience leadership

Parent, student, and employee perspective surveys already ask how leadership feels. Here those answers are read as four needs—Trust, Compassion, Stability, and Hope—alongside each group’s view of leadership and mission. School Climate keeps the wider picture of school life. This reading stays with leadership.

The head of school’s assessment, with other administrators beside it

Boards evaluate the head of school on what only they are positioned to judge—character, mission leadership, talent, operations, and change. Administrator feedback sits on the same leadership picture, so the conversation is not about one person alone. The screen uses the title the school itself chooses.

The board looks in the mirror too

Trustees assess board effectiveness and their own service. The board evaluates the head of school—and examines whether governance itself is healthy, focused, and faithful to mission.

The arc of a family’s relationship with the school

New Family Perspective captures first impressions while they are still fresh. Exit surveys record why families and staff leave, in their own words. Alumni Perspective asks about lasting fruit years later, so a fraying relationship can surface early enough to address.

Campaign readiness, when a school is considering one

This part stays off until a school turns it on. Optional questions from the board, parents, and alumni then feed Board, Parent, and Alumni Readiness scores, and the Campaign Readiness Index that combines them.

Wiser stewardship

Clearer questions. Wiser next steps.
