EDCOE’s Charter Alternative Programs is looking for a talented individual to join our high-quality team as a Program Lead at Charter College & Career Prep (CCP). This program serves at-risk students in grades 7-12 who may have had difficulty finding success in a traditional school; however, the great majority of students enroll because of the quality of our alternative program. The Program Lead provides key academic, social, and behavioral support to students in a variety of ways, including ensuring that at-risk students and families are effectively linked with targeted assistance and support. The Program Lead works with the school administration to act as a liaison with governmental and community-based agencies - e.g., SARB, Probation, and counseling services - to help ensure that our students are successful academically and socially. CCP provides a rich curriculum that centers on engaging students with applied learning opportunities in a supportive, structured environment. Our modern, state-of-the-art facility features 10 classrooms rich with instructional technology, including Maker Space, Culinary Arts, Robotics, Wilderness Adventure, Art, and a Drone Operator’s course. Curriculum is centered on college and career readiness, while taking into account students’ individual needs and learning styles. Our school is located on the El Dorado County Office of Education campus in Placerville. We normally serve between 100 - 150 students.
