    What are the duties and responsibilities of a Departmental Chairperson?

     

    The department chairpersons are charged with the responsibility of maintaining current staff development programs in their subject area.  Ground level school improvement initiatives are discussed and implemented with careful and precise delivery mechanisms in order to obtain the best overall results possible.   New research and school improvement initiatives are studied carefully by each department for future implementation.  The chairperson will schedule departmental meetings in order to achieve this goal.

    The grade level  chairperson serves as a liaison between teachers and school leadership. Although direct communication between teachers and school leadership is encouraged, the grade level meetings offer a venue for grade level teachers to discuss current events and propose unified solutions or recommendations for school improvement.  The chairperson will hold regularly scheduled meetings to accomplish this goal.
