I have not posted anything yet.

I do have some documents that I am trying to put together as a white paper for posting here on CD.

I will share my submission this week for my position.

I don't mean to be a pest but have you made any progress on the job description yet?

[Coach Norm]

You are not being a pest.

I have submitted my proposal to our district but have not heard any more concerning the description.

I will be posting a write up in a few weeks over my proposal as well as some others I got feedback from. I have a few emails out still waiting for people to send me documents. I am also awaiting approval from a few to post their documents as well.

My proposal is below. It was not very detailed as I figured it was a first pass at the administration and there would be some back and forth.
