I am an education specialist and teach in a special day class & general ed intervention setting for 3rd to 6th grades.
Things I want from an administrator are reality, don't waste my time or use me as a launching pad for your career.
Reality; I am not a general education teacher in a regular classroom and my students have learning disabilities. Our classroom must have a different pace & focus. A good administrator recognizes this and doesn't push the school district agendas as rigorously as he/she does for a gen ed class.
I have mass quanities of legal documents to write and meetings to conduct, coordination with specialists and service providers. Don't waste my time with redundant paperwork, with meetings that have nothing to do with my special ed duties, and inefficient schedules.
If it works, don't fix it! Best practices evolve on their own to even better practices, with teacher collaboration. Administrators, bringing in every cutting edge idea that arrives, and asking me to embrace it is a waste of time. I don't want to be a stat on your resume, i.e. When I was at ___, I implemented such and such...
Finally in more general terms I want to be treated positively, respectfully and appreciated. I want to be heard when the need arises and I loathe being micro-managed.
Will you tell us why you're asking this question?
