The assistant principal assumes responsibility for student management. This time is set aside primarily for professional development, often department-based work. Teacher workshop days are most often left to departmental discretion. Regular in-service programs on technology training have been available. Teachers' primary means of providing input into the decision-making process is through their department chair.
Departments meet regularly.
Faculty meetings are held monthly for the primary purpose of presenting administrative concerns. As of January 1996, the principal has agreed to institute regular issue-centered discussion times for faculty input. All administrators are available to individual teachers. The principal meets upon request with individual departments about their concerns. Lines of communication are available and open between administration, faculty and staff.
