Overall Purpose

The Multi-Classroom Leader 1 (MCL
1) is expected to intensively coach 2-4 teachers on his/her caseload and teach students through various models. The MCL 1 is also responsible for leading a team of teachers and other support staff responsible for multiple classrooms as well as teaching students within the team to meet the principal’s standards of excellence. The MCL co‑plans, co‑teaches, models, coaches and gives feedback, and leads and supports the team.

The MCL also teaches students part of the time. Under the school administration's supervision, the MCL establishes each team member’s roles and goals, determines how students spend time, and organizes teaching roles to fit each teacher’s strengths, content knowledge, and professional development goals. The MCL 1 organizes the team to review student progress and change instruction to ensure high‑progress learning for every child.

The MCL 1 works collaboratively with the team, using the team’s new ideas and innovations that the MCL 1 agrees may improve learning. The MCL 1 is accountable for the learning and development of all the teachers and students on their caseload and team. The MCL 1 also provides feedback to the school administration regarding the progress of the students and teachers within their caseload.
