An activity for August 1993 is for the Superintendent and the Cabinet to begin to identify programs for "fast track" evaluation. A fast track evaluation will not have as many dimensions or details as a regular evaluation, since the evaluative process is conducted in a reduced time frame. Evaluation of the districts program will provide the information that is needed for us to determine if programs are effective and that such implementation will assist us in meeting our commitment to our Court-approved Desegregation Plan. The following guidelines are to be used to conduct fast track evaluations of targeted programs. 1. Prepare a comprehensive program description for each area or component that is targeted for evaluation. 2. Identify program goals for each area or component of the program that is being evaluated. 3. Identify the evaluation criteria that is to be used to fast track evaluate each goal. Include all evaluative measures and instruments that will be used in this process. 4. Identify any obstacles or problems that were encountered that hindered or impacted the obtainment of program goals. 5. Given the results of your fast track evaluation, recommendations for program additions, deletions, and/or changes are deemed appropriate.
