Class Supervision
Watertown Public Schools > Departments > Human Resources
The teacher is responsible for the health, safety, and security of students assigned to the teacher during the regularly scheduled instruction, homeroom periods, supervised study halls and assigned administrative duties.
Should it be necessary for the teacher to be absent from a class, the teacher shall make specific arrangements with another person (teacher, substitute, supervisor, or administrator) to take responsibility for the class in his/her absence.
It is recognized that, after proper preparation, a student teacher or intern needs the experience ofteaching a class without the supervising teacher being present. However, the supervising teacher retains responsibility for the class during such circumstances and shall remain in close proximity in event the
student teacher or intern needs assistance.
