Order 1192088: Supervisor′s Interactions: Teachers, Children, parents, and Other Staff
1.) What is the most important part of my position???
*** For me, the most important part of being a Site Supervisor of 4 classrooms within the Preschool I work at, is having "morning check-in's" with all of my staff members upon my arrival as I walk through their classrooms each day! I am also available for classroom support, which includes breaks/lunches, covering absences and vacations of staff, etc.
2.) What do I do extremely well???
*** I am very organized, great with scheduling, keeping my staff of 7 happy, even when they are a little stressed.
3.) What can the supervisor improve on???
*** I need to work on "hiding" when I myself am stressed/frustrated, so it doesn't "rub off" onto my staff or children within our care, especially with given situations dealing daily within my job...short staffed, lack of substitutes, etc.
I also need to learn Licensing Regulations for Kindergarten children, since one of the 4 programs I supervise is with Kindergarteners.
4.) Specific Advice to support positive interactions with teachers/children/parents/staff???
***"Happy Staff"..."Happy Work Environment"
Keep communication lines open, as well as having an "open door" office policy. No question is a silly question...if I do not know the answer, I will find out the answer to your question.
I am here to support, help, advise, encourage, care, for my staff daily.
I love my job with all of my heart. I fill fulfilled and satisfied as I help the lives of many families, children, and staff.
