Teacher Responsibilities
Values, Expectations, and Commitment
Teachers must commit themselves to the School’s values and mission. Moreover, appreciating the example of excellent schools which succeed at helping all students achieve at a high level, teachers must hold high expectations for each student and commit themselves to help every student achieve their full potential.
Student Learning
Every teacher must accept ultimate responsibility for his or her students achieving learning progress that meets or exceeds the School's high standards and must actively develop solutions to problems, reach out for peer and leader support, and take advantage of other school resources, as necessary.
Teaching and Assessment
Teachers may make use of school-provided curricular materials, or they may design their own, but they must plan and deliver vibrant and engaging lessons – each with a measurable goal – within the framework of the School’s carefully sequenced, standards-aligned education program and they must administer school-provided formative assessments regularly so instruction can be targeted to their students' needs.
Culture and Classroom Management
Teachers must communicate, and also model behaviors that benefit the high expectations culture and the caring school climate to which we are committed. They must apply school and classroom rules consistently and effectively; use preventive discipline, and effectively supervise students both in their classroom and elsewhere on school grounds.
Teamwork, Professional Relations, and Professional Development
Teachers should see themselves as members of a team and should commit themselves to their own and their peers’ ongoing professional development. Teachers will be required to attend professional development sessions, participate actively in planning meetings, and become part of a professional learning community where they can lend assistance to, and gain assistance from, their grade-level peers.
Special Needs Students and English Language Learners
Teachers must work collaboratively with the school’s special education and ELL staff to implement the school’s special education and ELL programs and to comply with all state and federal regulations.
Reporting and Staff Relationships
Teachers will report to the Head Dean, who will provide considerable supervision and assistance, supported by the Dean of Students, our Teacher Coach, and the Supervisor of Special Education.
Teachers will be part of a school-wide team that includes many different professionals but should expect to work particularly closely with their grade-level peers, with whom they will be engaged within professional learning communities, assisting one another to solve problems.
