What does an "instructional facilitator" do?

I'm not quite sure what an instructional facilitator would do in the Holden school district. But I'll be able to tell you next year when I start MY NEW JOB.

That's right. My new job. My district has created an instructional facilitator job for the next school year. I applied in January, I interviewed yesterday, and they came to my room to tell me I got the job less than 24 hours later.

Basically, I'll be overseeing the new teachers in the district and helping them learn how to teach better. I'll also be helping experienced teachers with learning new teaching techniques and technology for their classrooms. Since it's a new position, the district acknowledges that we're not fully sure what the scope of my duties will include yet. But it will be fun, and it will be a challenge. Go me!
