    • Recognizing the importance of unstructured moments in a child's school experience and their impact on school culture.
    • Building relationships with students that enhance the learning process.
    • Using data to assess student performance and adapt instruction accordingly.
    • Designing engaging lessons aligned with curriculum guidelines and tailored to students' needs.
    • Possessing knowledge of early language learners and implementing appropriate curriculum.
    • Assessing student work and tracking their development.
    • Developing literacy, math, and social studies lessons based on best practices.
    • Reflecting on teaching methods and curriculum to make improvements.

    • Working with school personnel to support student well-being.
    • Participating in faculty and committee meetings.
    • Engaging fully in Lower School life as a valued community member.
    • Performing other duties as assigned by the Division Director.
