      As an independent art specialist, my role is to provide new secondary art teachers with successful teaching strategies for the classroom. I observe each of the new DISD art educators and assist them in developing a plan to help them with classroom management, discipline strategies, curriculum development, working with special populations, grading systems, exhibiting student artwork, and purchasing class supplies.
