Each bargaining unit member, upon his/her employment or at the beginning of the ensuing school year, whichever is later, shall be apprised of the general criteria upon which he/she will be evaluated in a meeting with his/her immediate supervisor. Upon the request of a bargaining unit member, the immediate supervisor will meet with the member to discuss progress and job performance. E. All annual evaluations shall be reduced to writing, and a copy shall be given to the bargaining unit member. If the bargaining unit member disagrees with the evaluation, he/she may submit a written response which shall be attached to the file copy of the evaluation in question. F. If a supervisor believes a bargaining unit member is doing unacceptable work, the reasons therefore shall be set forth in writing within a reasonable time after the deficiencies are noted. G. Following each written summative evaluation, which shall include the right to a conference with the evaluator at the employee's request, the bargaining unit member shall sign and be given a copy of the evaluation report form prepared by the evaluator. In no case shall the bargaining unit member's signature be construed to mean that he/she necessarily agrees with the contents of the evaluation. H. All written evaluation documents are to be placed in the bargaining unit member's personnel file. The evaluation form may be revised by the Administration to be consistent with job classification duties. The Association President will be provided with a copy of the forms and will be given thirty (30) workdays for input prior to implementation. Employees will be given copies of the evaluation form at the beginning of the year in which they will be evaluated. I. Bargaining unit members shall not be required to self-evaluate.
