Board approves intervention teacher and alternative education administrator job descriptions
Summary
Trustees approved a new certificated job description for Intervention Teacher (effective 7/1/2025) to support K–8 students below standard and a certificated management job description for Administrator of Alternative Education Programs (effective 4/1/2025).
The board approved two staffing items on March 5 aimed at expanding services as the district grows: a certificated Lamersville Teachers Association job description for an Intervention Teacher (effective July 1, 2025) and a certificated management job description for an Administrator of Alternative Education Programs (effective April 1, 2025).
Staff explained Intervention Teachers (eight positions, one per K–8 school site with distribution based on need) will specialize in targeted programs to address students who are below standard and to reduce the "dilution effect" on classroom teachers. "Everyone who's been in public education since No Child Left Behind knows...the yellows become light green and then dark green," a staff presenter said, describing how targeted intervention can lift student achievement. Trustees asked whether intervention teachers would be assigned to a particular principal; staff said they will be assigned to the principal where they spend the majority of their time.
The Administrator of Alternative Education Programs position consolidates oversight of existing alternative programs (EPIC, LEO) and is intended to support development of an adult school and potential site‑based alternative education. Staff said the position responds to program growth and complexity and will provide centralized leadership for nontraditional programs.
Both job descriptions were approved by roll call motion and carried 5–0.
