 school was to get to know the staff and their needs.

 You can do this by spending lunch times in the Teachers Room,
 volunteering for curriculum committees, asking questions about
 what they are doing in their classes and generally making yourself
 available to provide service to staff >>

   I agree.   You really have to sell yourself and let the staff know who you
are and that you are both available and accessible.   It's tough to be "new"
on a job.  Not only do you not know faces and needs, they don't know who you
are either.   It helps to write a friendly little note introducing yourself
and offering your services!
