The following document, which you will "sign" via the link at the bottom of the page, is not a contract. It is merely a written statement of my expectations, as building administrator, for you, an employee of Marshall Magnet Elementary School. These expectations will remain in place throughout the duration of the school year or will be rescinded by the building administrator in writing.
CT meetings: requirements & expectations
· You are required to attend all scheduled Collaborative Team meetings during your work day unless you have taken leave time via the AESOP call-off system.
· You are required to review your team's agenda prior to your meeting time and to come prepared for your CT meeting.
· You are required to comply with the pre-established agenda, to participate as an involved member of your group, and to foster, through your speech, demeanor, and attitude an atmosphere of collegiality during your meetings.
Other duties as assigned: requirements & expectations
· You are contractually required to perform certain other duties during your work day, in addition to your teaching responsibilities.
· Each teacher will be assigned at least one, weekly morning or afternoon duty. These duties are necessary in order to provide a safe, secure environment for our students both before and after school.

· You must be on time for your assigned duty. If you have taken leave time during your duty-day, you should make arrangements to trade duties with another staff member. Making arrangements for your substitute to cover you duty is insufficient as subs often do not arrive on campus in time to perform morning-duties.

Lesson plans: requirements & expectations

· Your plans for the week should be completed no later than 8:30 Monday morning.
· Your plans must be visible on your desk at all times during the work week, before, during, and after school.
