DESCRIPTION OF OUR STAFF:
Our staff is composed of like-minded people, for whom reaching students who have fallen through the cracks is a personal mission and not just a job. We are dedicated, passionate, and caring. Our students sense this as they walk through the doors, and as a result, we are able to create supportive relationships and family-like environments where students can finally feel at home and get the academic and personal help that they need.
DESCRIPTION OF OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE:
• Experience working with at-risk youth (able to motivate, mentor, uplift)
• Previous teaching experience (whether in traditional or nontraditional setting)
• Passion and patience for students who’ve previously been unsuccessful in school
• Excellent grasp and knowledge of subject area
• Ability to craft innovative, interactive lesson plans
• Ability/willingness to teach multiple preps within one subject area (note: this requires more planning, but the trade-off is much smaller class sizes)
• Ability to provide scaffolding for students who are behind
• Interest beyond merely teaching, to include extracurricular activities (art? sports? drama? hiking/camping? technology? what extra talents do you bring?)
• Intern, preliminary, or clear credential
If this description matches up with your personal mission, then we would encourage you to apply to join our team!
