Been offered a science "guru" position at a Florida elementary school, one where I would do a "hands on" activity with all classes (with teacher in tow) and act as advisor for all matters scientific in the school.
It's a newly created position, one that I would have a LOT of leeway and plenty of funding (title 1 school).
anyone done this?

I wouldn't be your friend though, if I didn't caution you to get the complete job description up front.
My previous district had a similar position in the Title schools. Some of the coaches taught; not all of them. They did lots of "test" stuff. Remediation, intervention, data analysis, that type of thing. The...See More
