A panel of two students, two teachers, two administrators and one parent asked me stock interview questions which they read off of papers that were in front of them, all the while completely avoiding eye contact with me, and after which they wrote on said paper while I answered their question. I was told that I would hear one way or another whether or not they wanted to have a second interview, but weeks went by and, even though I had sent thank-yous all around, nobody from Gardner High School ever called, wrote or e-mailed me.

The interview was very professional with a panel of admin, counselors, and content area teachers. Questions were fairly standard content-classroom management. Community and parent/learning coach relationships are important in Andover.
