Help evaluate Juneau School District’s superintendent

Public input wanted.

The Juneau Board of Education is conducting its annual evaluation of Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Bridget Weiss, and is asking for public input.

The public is being asked to participate through an online survey. The survey can be found in the “News” section of the Juneau schools website or on the survey website surveymonkey.com.

The survey is part of the board’s evaluation of Weiss’ performance for the 2018-19 school year. In a statement, the board said that the annual evaluation “strengthens the working relationship” between the board and superintendent. Additionally, the evaluation “provides an opportunity to clarify roles, jointly identify priorities and monitor progress towards district goals,” the statement said.

Surveys completed by Friday, Aug. 30 will be considered as part of the evaluation. All input is provided to the members of the board and discussed with the superintendent, according to the statement.

This September 2015, photo provided by NOAA Fisheries shows an aerial view of adult female Southern Resident killer whale (J16) swimming with her calf (J50). New research suggests that inbreeding may be a key reason that the Pacific Northwest’s endangered population of killer whales has failed to recover despite decades of conservation efforts. The so-called “southern resident” population of orcas stands at 73 whales. That’s just two more than in 1971, after scores of the whales were captured for display in marine theme parks around the world. (NOAA Fisheries / Vancouver Aquarium)
