- the use of multiple data sources for documenting performance, including opportunities for district administrators/superintendents to present evidence of their own performance as well as student growth;
- a procedure for conducting performance reviews that stresses accountability, promotes professional improvement, and increases district administrators'/superintendents' involvement in the evaluation process; and
- opportunity for assistance when needed.
