Teacher Vision

Pharos Academy Charter School is looking for a teacher who is an “uber” kid person. The ideal candidate absolutely loves to teach, train, and push students both academically as well as behaviorally. There is an understanding that messing up and failure is a natural and welcomed part of the learning process. In this teacher’s classroom, all students are treated with dignity at all times and students are taught non-academic skills like hard work, collaboration, kindness, and receiving feedback.

In addition to being a kid person, the ideal candidate has a penchant for planning, preparation, using data, and being pushed to excellence. This teacher understands that what happens before students enter the classroom (intellectual preparation) drives what happens in the classroom and ultimately determines student achievement and success levels.

What We are Looking For

• Commitment to daily and long-term instructional planning and preparation to ensure students get the most out of each class.
• Commitment and drive to constantly learn and improve practice through implementing feedback from instructional leadership, peers, parents, and students to better serve and meet the needs of all students.
• Commitment to using data to improve short term and long-term student achievement goals. Full accountability for student academic outcomes and classroom culture and a steadfast belief that all students can achieve.
• Commitment to being a team player (crew member) and belief in Pharos Academy’s core beliefs and educational viewpoint.

What We Offer You

• Competitive salary starting at $80,000.
• 401k plan with employer matching of 5%.
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to further support employees.
• Classrooms fully stocked with 1:1 technology and all essential classroom supplies.
• Weekly individual coaching & collaborative professional development.
• Summer Professional Development Institute.

Teacher Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in education or related field of study with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 overall.
• Experience working with school-aged children in an academic or youth development setting.
• Strong love and commitment to helping students work through mistakes while building pro-social and academic skills.
• Experienced teachers must show a proven track record of achievement in the classroom.
• Bilingual (Spanish) preferred, but not required.
