Job Summary
Job Summary
The El Dorado County Office of Education, a recognized leader in providing high-quality alternative educational programs, is looking for a talented teacher to join our team as a part of our Charter University Prep and Charter Connections Academy programs. Our instructional format is similar to a College where, depending upon class choices, students come to the school site two or four days per week, and they must complete significant work at home on the other school days. Students schedule their non-classroom days to complete home assignments, take community college courses, participate in P.E. activities, participate in internships, to work in the business world, or to pursue other personal interests. Our programs are looking for a full time teacher who has mastery of English Language Arts instruction and can take that mastery and prepare meaningful classroom and at-home experiences which are motivational and academically rigorous. The candidate will also be responsible for an elective course and working with students as a supervising (caseload) high school teacher. Preparation time for teachers is a high priority so that students can receive quality instruction and significant feedback on their work. Our students use technology and we design our courses within web-based Learning Management Systems (L.M.S.) to create a seamless educational experience for students. Class sizes run around 15 students.
