• Maintain a beautiful, organized classroom that reflects student learning, including regularly updated bulletin boards and displays
• Collaborate closely with arts teachers to plan and support school-based events, including performances, art exhibits, and science fairs, and actively participate in these events, including those that take place beyond the school day
• Communicate regularly with families, including parent-teacher conferences
• Collaborate with general education teachers, service providers, and school leadership
• Participate in professional development and coaching cycles

• Organized, proactive, and solutions-driven
• Growth mindset and openness to feedback
• Collaborative team player
