Here is the School District of Jefferson's classroom teacher (regular education) position description.
In reviewing the position description, the most noticeable detail is that it has not been updated since 1988. As such, although the six-page job description is quite detailed, it does not include more current educational terminology (e.g., differentiation, standards-based curriculum, formative/summative assessment) nor is incorporating technology ever mentioned. Also, the position description assumes that the majority of instruction will be teacher-centered and that maintaing students' attention and monitoring their behavior for the entire class is of high importance. In short, although there is with which ti disagree in the description, it is clearly in need of updating.
