  • Attend trainings designed to increase knowledge of current behavioral principles, policies, and procedures.
  • Assist with the supervision of students during school activities (e.g., field trips, bus areas, classroom areas, lunchroom, play areas, and in other assigned areas). Upon request, provide supervision and support to students during transportation to and from school in district-operated or school-operated vehicles.
