In 2019, before COVID, I went to the office for my interview. The principal gave me a tour of the school's hallways. We peeked into classrooms through windows but didn't actually go inside to watch any teaching. I then did a demo lesson with four kids, followed by a debrief with the principal. I accidentally ran into the executive director in the stairwell as I was leaving, and she introduced us.
