A principal or head principal has four primary responsibilities when using eVAL to evaluate teachers:

1. Review self-assessments that are submitted by their assigned teachers;
2. Set and communicate goals, and respond to goals that are self-assigned by teachers;
3. Schedule and conduct observations and conferences; and
4. Review (and possibly score) evidence.

To carry out these responsibilities, a principal interacts with menus for specific tasks and activities (shown below):

• Dashboard - The principal can view and monitor progress toward the completion of each teacher’s evaluation.
• Artifacts - The principal can view items that have been shared by their teachers.
• YTD Evidence - The principal can view, monitor and <possibly> score evidence that has been submitted by his/her teachers.
• Student Growth Goals - The principal writes and assigns goal prompts, and reviews and (possibly) scores goals submitted by his/her assigned teachers.
• Observations - The principal schedules, conducts and reviews observations with his/her assigned teachers.
• Self-Assessments - The principal reviews (and possibly scores) the self-assessments submitted by his/her teachers.
