Appendix+3+--+Staffing+and+Professional+Development

In staffing, one of our guiding principles has been the goal of building one faculty, rather than separate IB and non-IB faculties. In line with this, we are trying to develop a school culture where no one “owns” courses, but where we build faculty capacity with multiple people trained for and working in various subject areas. This serves the current interests of the school through increased opportunities for collaboration, and it serves the longer-term interests of the school through increased stability.

The school administration has provided consistent support for this goal by
 * Recruiting staff with the professional and philosophical qualifications necessary to implement this model of staffing
 * Providing resources for training/professional development

The tables below give a summary of the most recent IB training workshops in each subject area.

Individuals currently teaching a class or serving in a given role are listed first. Training information in **//bold italics//** has taken place while the individual has been at SAS, and been supported financially by SAS.
