As the Community and Culture Coordinator, I served as the point person for cultivating a positive community within the team and school. As the point person, I delegate tasks among my team members to ensure maximum accountability and equality. Important parts of my role are power-greeting, rotation of bulletin boards, power greetings, team & school appreciation, and coordination of a monthly newsletter. Within the classroom, I will work as a mentor, tutor, and advocate of my students.
