Full Job Description

The Director of Schools (Elementary) provides leadership coaching, instructional development, and operational support to building administrators and school leadership teams across the district's elementary sites. This position acts as a critical partner in translating central office academic strategy into building-level execution. The Director maintains direct supervisory and evaluative authority over assigned instructional leaders and central office team personnel. The Director is responsible for mentoring elementary school teams, ensuring the consistent operation of building-level structures, driving early literacy and foundational academic growth strategies, and monitoring compliance with curriculum alignment and fiscal grant metrics.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

Coaching and Leadership Development:

Provide regular, job-embedded coaching and development support for assigned elementary building administrators and instructional leaders.
Partner with school leadership teams to develop high-expectation environments, cultivating strong administrative skills, active listening, and strategic problem-solving.
Conduct systematic elementary school site visits and classroom walkthroughs alongside building teams to calibrate instructional observation metrics and audit teaching practices.
Design, implement, and facilitate targeted professional development systems focused on elementary leadership capacity and school growth.

Curriculum Implementation and Collaboration:

Monitor and audit the implementation of the district's standards-based Pre-K-5 academic curriculum across all assigned buildings/programs.
Collaborate with school leadership teams, building and district instructional leaders, and academic departments to support uniform curriculum deployment.
Provide resources, instructional guidance, and implementation support to school-based leadership frameworks, collaborative data teams, and professional learning structures within the elementary schools.
Coordinate the integration of early childhood frameworks, foundational intervention programs, and elementary learning technology tools.
Lead and support the development, review, and continuous refinement of curriculum maps to ensure vertical and horizontal alignment with Pennsylvania Core Standards, district priorities, and instructional pacing.
Coordinate curriculum mapping processes across grade levels and content areas to ensure coherence, continuity, and equitable access to rigorous instruction.
Facilitate the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of district common interim assessments aligned to curriculum maps, priority standards, and instructional units.

Data and Student Growth:

Support and guide school leadership teams through formal data-review processes and continuous growth goal cycles.
Partner with district data analysts to evaluate elementary diagnostic, formative, interim, and summative performance data (e.g., early literacy and numeracy metrics) to aggressively target achievement gaps.
Assist building administrators in identifying the primary reasons for a lack of student growth within specific educational areas and student subgroups.
Support elementary teams in crafting, monitoring, and executing data-informed school improvement plans to bolster student achievement.
Lead the analysis of district common interim assessment data to monitor student mastery of priority standards, evaluate instructional effectiveness, and inform timely intervention and enrichment strategies.
Facilitate data discussions that connect curriculum implementation, curriculum mapping, interim assessment performance, and instructional practices to improve student outcomes and ensure continuous improvement across schools.

Budget and Grant Management:

Assist in the strategic formulation and review of annual budgets for assigned elementary school buildings and related educational services.
Monitor building-level compliance metrics for local, state, and federal grants (including Title I, Title II, and specialized early childhood/school improvement funds) to guarantee correct allocation tracking.
Ensure all grant-funded initiatives at the elementary school site level are closely monitored for implementation quality and that performance outcomes are documented.
Review and maintain required state compliance files, academic records, and operational documentation tied to elementary school performance.

Professional Responsibilities:

Serve actively on the Executive Director's leadership team and collaborate with central office divisions to align district resources with school building needs.
Convene and facilitate cross-functional administrative committees to streamline district operations and resolve localized building conflicts.
Attend executive workshops, board meetings, and educational seminars to stay highly informed on changing state benchmarks and modern leadership trends.

EDUCATION, EXPERIENCE AND ESSENTIAL SKILLS REQUIREMENTS:

Education/Certification: Master's degree in Educational Administration, Educational Leadership or a closely related field required. Valid Pennsylvania K-12 Administrative/Principal Certification required.
Experience: Minimum of five (5) years of highly successful instructional teaching experience required (Elementary experience preferred). Demonstrated success in curriculum work, pedagogical design, and standards-based instruction. Proven track record in leadership development, coaching, and supporting instructional leaders to drive measurable student growth. Successful experience managing administrative budgets and navigating state/federal compliance frameworks preferred. Minimum of three to five (3-5) years of successful administrative or central office supervisory experience preferred.

Essential skills required to perform the work:

Advanced capability to coach, mentor, and build leadership capacity in adult professionals.
Ability to foster a positive, collaborative, and inclusive organizational culture.
Effective decision-making and problem-solving skills.
Proficiency in data analysis for instructional improvement.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
Ability to build and maintain relationships with diverse stakeholders.
Knowledge of student behavior management and intervention strategies.
Experience with budget planning and resource management.
Comprehensive knowledge of or ability to learn PA state standards, state and federal compliance mandates, and modern educational accountability frameworks.

Performance of Duties: Employees must faithfully perform, at a professional level of competence, the services and duties prescribed by the District, regardless of whether such duties are specifically described in policy, in a job description, in a notice of assignment, or in another document. Prompt and regular attendance is an essential function of each employee's job. Employees must also comply with all lawful directives issued by the Superintendent or by any other individual with supervisory authority. In addition, employees must comply with all applicable federal and state laws and with all rules, regulations, and policies established by the District. Employees may not, directly or indirectly, engage or participate in any action or conduct that conflicts in any respect with the interests of the District. Toward that end, employees may not engage or participate in any action or conduct that is inconsistent with their job duties, the basic educational mission of the District, or the desired image of the District.
