A recent evaluation of Mountain Brook Schools Superintendent Dicky Barlow came back “very positive,” according to Board of Education Chair Jane Menendez.
The evaluation discussed at the Board’s July 14 meeting.
“The evaluation process gives us an opportunity to review the accomplishments of the superintendent and the school system as a whole,” Menendez said. “We are pleased and grateful for Mr. Barlow’s excellent work as he completes his fifth year as superintendent.”
Board members emphasized Barlow’s ability in “effectively managing the day-to-day operations while driving the strategic vision of the school system.”
This past year Barlow launched and furthered a number initiatives including The Institute for Innovation, the customization of education, and a community wide discussion of the “10 things we want people to say about our schools.”
“Mr. Barlow has built a strong team of professionals who share a common vision and a commitment to excellence,” Menendez said. “ He leads the school system in consistently looking for ways to do the right thing for the student. The Board is grateful for his leadership and very optimistic about the future of Mountain Brook Schools.”
