The standard workday for BASAS members varies from the standard workday at the Dever Elementary School. As a result, Boston Public Schools’ time-reporting system does not reflect the actual hours of all Dever Elementary School employees’ workdays. All BASAS members are expected to meet with all direct reports at least once every two weeks. BASAS members that supervise instructional staff are expected to observe and provide actionable feedback at least once every two weeks. All BASAS members are expected to participate in weekly administrative meetings. These meetings may periodically occur outside of traditional hours. All BASAS members are expected to develop, plan, and execute professional development for the Dever Elementary School staff members. Unless otherwise directed by the Principal, all members are expected to participate in professional development and collaboration activities and staff meetings one afternoon a week. All BASAS members have some responsibilities for the overall effective operation of the school. In addition to traditional responsibilities and those duties listed above, all Dever Elementary School BASAS members are expected to be involved in a variety of educational and administrative activities that are necessary to fulfill the missions of the school and of Superintendent Chang. These activities may include, but are not limited to the following: Drafting performance evaluations for each of their direct reports; Working with the school principal to plan Family, Teacher, and Student orientations; Communicating proactively and effectively with Dever Elementary School families when concerns regarding their children arise; Participating in three parent conference evenings during the school year; Participating in staff recruitment and selection processes; Working regularly with school administrators to improve their own practice and the instructional practices of their teachers; Attending student-related meetings, as needed; Serving as an advisor to a small cohort of students; Ensuring that teachers create standards-aligned, rigorous curricula and that it is well documented; and Connecting with and providing professional support for school leaders in other Boston Public Schools. Feedback, Performance Improvement, and Dismissal Superintendent Chang and Dever Elementary School leaders aim to provide ongoing feedback, coaching, and support to all employees. If and when an employee is not meeting the expectations of his or her job, Superintendent Chang and/or the principal may choose to place an employee on a Performance Improvement Plan. If and when the principal and/or her designee has determined that an employee’s performance is egregious, the school may elect to remove an individual from the school without instituting a Performance Improvement Plan.
