• Maintain accurate records and ensure compliance with all MLL program requirements
• Maintain a beautiful, organized classroom environment that reflects student learning, including 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
• Participate in professional development and coaching cycles
