Substitute Teachers - Upper School

Back to job listing

Make a difference every day! Lawrence seeks highly qualified, charismatic, and inspiring educators to join the school community as substitute teachers at our Sagamore Hills Campus (grades 7-12). There are openings for part-time daily substitute positions.

The essential function of these positions is to provide coverage for teachers who are absent from school, and to provide a safe, structured, and academically-focused experience for students. The ideal candidates possess previous experience in a school setting. A positive attitude, excellent organizational skills, and demonstrated success in a collaborative and cooperative workplace are essential. Knowledge and sensitivity to the needs of students who struggle with learning and attention differences is important.

A bachelor’s degree is required; teacher licensure is preferred. Lawrence offers competitive rates and a supportive working environment.

Lawrence School is a co-ed, K-12, independent school serving approximately 300 students from 11 counties and 80 communities across Northeast Ohio. We have two campus locations in Northeast Ohio. The Lower School in Broadview Heights serves kindergarten-through sixth-grade students, while the Upper School in Sagamore Hills serves seventh-through 12th-grade students. For more than 50 years, Lawrence School has followed its mission to “Teach students using diverse learning strategies, ignite their potential, and inspire academic, personal, and social success,” by delivering academic excellence to students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and ADHD.

In some environments, these diagnoses are called learning disabilities. At Lawrence School, we refer to the unique way our students process information as simply learning differences. We know great minds don’t think alike!

Lawrence School has a faculty and staff consisting of 93 full-time and 24 part-time employees. Lawrence School is a proud member of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS), the Association of Learning Differences Schools (ALDS), the Ohio Association of Independent Schools (OAIS), the Cleveland Council of Independent Schools (CCIS), and is accredited by the Independent School Association of the Central States (ISACS).
