Board vows to evaluate Webb by year’s end

Board vows to evaluate Webb by year’s end

YOUNGSTOWN — The city school board didn’t complete the superintendent’s job evaluation last year, but the chairman of the board’s personnel committee said one will be done by the end of this year.

Dr. Wendy Webb took the job as superintendent in 2004, and her contract called for her to have an annual evaluation of her performance done by the board.

So far, she’s had only one.

The annual evaluation is to be completed each November.

She didn’t have one in 2004 because she’d been on the job only for a few months by November. Board members felt it wouldn’t be fair to examine her job performance for such a short period.

She had an evaluation done in 2005, but the board never got around to finishing one in 2006.

That won’t happen this year, said Jamael Tito Brown, chairman of the personnel committee, vowing that the task will be finished before he leaves office Dec. 31.
