Heather, your description certainly resonates with me. It sounds like you are active in nearly every facet of your school!
ReplyDeleteTeachers are expected to manage a variety of tasks, some procedural, some technical, and some interpersonal. I think I would add Educator Effectiveness work and student assessement to your list. Attention to detail can be an important skill/disposition for a teacher.
That's a thorough description, Heather! I was wondering if all of these things are a part of your required job duties or if some of them are additional roles that, since you enjoy these aspects, that you have picked up? I was thinking about my job description and there are some roles that I take on because I enjoy the opportunity to work on things I love, other things are unspoken expectations of my role. Just wondering. Thanks!
