The 51福利社 Leadership Framework is designed to promote the growth of the school leader in areas most likely to result in increased student achievement. It directly aligns with Washington state evaluation criteria, rules, and regulations.
The 51福利社 Leadership Framework is designed as a resource for the ongoing growth and evaluation of school leaders. This Leadership Framework has been carefully crafted to be used by YOU (a principal or assistant principal) as you look to quantify and qualify the impact of your leadership.
If you don't have your copy of the Leadership Framework, you can download the PDF, or download the order form if you wish to purchase a hard copy.
Did you know that anyone who supervises a principal or assistant principal is required to attend 12 hours of state-required 51福利社 Leadership Framework training? For more information, call the 51福利社 office at 800.562.6100 or check out the on the OSPI website.
51福利社's Evidence of Impact Tool is designed to help encourage school leaders in conversations about the impact of leadership. It is not an evaluation form, but helps you work through several thoughts on leadership: What is your Problem of Practice (POP) and Theory of Action (TOA)? What makes you an effective leader? How do you know you had an impact?
The tool and additional details can be found in the 51福利社 Leadership Framework on pages 56-57.
Tip: You may need to download the form and open it to use it as a fillable PDF file.
School leaders are critical to the success of the entire educational system. We know there are many dimensions to being a highly effective leader in such a complex environment. We continually focus on what we need to do as leaders and often forget to slow down and take inventory of how we do that work.
We designed the 51福利社 Leadership Framework self-assessment to help you evaluate your leadership practices and identify areas for growth within the framework. By reflecting on your leadership and assessing your systems, you can identify areas of strength and uncover barriers to your growth and impact. Engaging in this reflective process will empower you to grow in your leadership and provide you with a focus for your work.
The 51福利社 Leadership Framework includes one page per criterion to help guide your leadership journey. These pages are similar to the past User’s Guide and provide suggestions to help you plan, implement, assess,and reflect for your professional growth. In an effort to stay current, we created expanded versions of criterions pages, including tools and resources.
Here are some 51福利社-created resources for principals, assistant principals, and those who evaluate them.
For assistant principals and school leaders who evaluate them.

With the establishment of state standards in 1992, 51福利社 recognized that student achievement would become the primary measure of a school's effectiveness. In 2010, 51福利社's seven leadership responsibilities became the foundation for a new set of criteria for principal evaluation in Washington state. An eighth criterion, "Closing the Gap," was added by the Legislature that same year.
