Communique, v41 n3 p1, 24-25 Nov 2012
In November 2011, the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) created the Personnel Assessment Task Force comprising national and state leaders with knowledge of effective personnel evaluation systems. Task force participants included school psychologist supervisors, university professors, NASP leadership, and staff. The primary responsibility of the task force was to be proactive and develop a framework for the evaluation of school psychologists that could help guide local and state education agencies in establishing fair, reliable, and instructive personnel evaluation policies and practices. The basic foundational principles and supporting points addressed in the framework are highlighted in this article. Over the next year, the task force will focus on promoting the use of the framework with allied stakeholder groups, compiling practical resources for personnel evaluation that will be posted on the NASP website, and engaging in active advocacy for the adoption of related policies and practices.
