GENERAL PURPOSE
Under the supervision of the Executive Director of Student Achievement, the District K-12 Science Specialist will spend 80%-90% of their contract time developing systems and implementing teaching and learning strategies that advance the district’s vision for K-12 Science education. Primary responsibilities will include supporting the implementation of the Utah’s Science and Engineering Education (SEEd) Standards, participating in collaborative team meetings, facilitating professional development sessions, coaching teachers in designing/implementing effective 3D science lessons and instructional strategies, engaging in classroom observation/feedback sessions, collaborating with teachers and administrators to evaluate and select science curricular resources, and managing the district science and engineering fair.

The District K-12 Science Specialist will be expected to use the remaining 10%-20% of contract time to plan for the above mentioned activities, participate in district meetings, and support project oversight.
