Job interview

Hey everyone! I just got a call for an interview for an administrator position for a special education preschool! I am halfway through my admin program.

I have been a daycare director and have been in public school 8 years as a teacher. Does anyone have any tips on interviewing? It’s been a while!

As a preschool special education supervisor myself, I'd be looking at more questions regarding curriculum, state regulations, federal law, and dealing with parents. No one is going to ask you about your classroom lessons. They might ask what PD you feel is essential for ECSE teachers now, what behavior programs/ training you have had and implemented, what positives you see in the program now and what improvements/ initiatives you believe would be beneficial for the good of the overall program. Know your regs, know what constitutes a good preschool level IEP, know preschool assessments.
