All of these expectations are generally applicable to all Faculty; however, differentiation is possible and expected for unique circumstances. For example, a member of Faculty may be excused from a meeting or PD session due to a coaching expectation. Faculty should discuss with their supervisor for any situation that may arise. Any expectation which is not clear to a member of Faculty should be discussed with the supervisor.
