Granite moves to place administrative support in every elementary school with 'Dean of Students' role
Summary
Chief of Staff Mitch Nerdin told the board the district created a Dean of Students position to provide administrative support at elementary schools; the role performs many assistant-principal tasks but will not supervise teachers.
Board member Julie Jackson asked whether each elementary school would receive at least a half-time assistant principal. Chief of Staff Dr. Mitch Nerdin said the district created a Dean of Students position to provide administrative support at every elementary school; the role performs administrative duties similar to an assistant principal but does not include teacher supervision.
The board discussed administrative support levels in elementary schools as part of staffing and budget priorities during the hearing. The change is being presented as district policy to increase on-site administrative capacity without changing teacher supervision responsibilities.
