Preschool/PreK Multi-age Classroom Teacher

Description :

The Multi-age Classroom Teacher is responsible for three and four-year-old students based on the philosophy that having an age range of more than one year in a classroom provides opportunities for younger children to learn from older children.

The Multi-age model is designed to be an integrated “looping model” so that children can have the same teacher in the same classroom for two consecutive years.

The Multi-age Classroom Teacher is a special education teacher responsible for the programming and implementation of Individualized Education Program services by working collaboratively with ancillary service providers and paraprofessionals to improve performance of students using evidence-based practices. This teacher will provide differentiated instruction based on the curriculum for all students. The goal for each student is to ensure kindergarten readiness.
