The role of the Consulting Teacher is complementary and not duplicative of the role of administrators, secondary resource teachers, nor other existing positions. Consulting Teachers are experienced MCPS teachers who are selected by the PAR panel. They are chosen through a rigorous application process that ensures they are outstanding teachers and are able to communicate their knowledge and strategies about best practices to adult learners. Consulting Teachers are reassigned full-time from their teaching duties for a period of three years. They agree to return to teaching for a minimum of two years once they complete their Consulting Teacher assignment.
