Online Science Teacher

Leona Connected is looking for a tech-savvy and engaging Science Teacher to join our tuition-free public charter school in a fully remote capacity. This position is designed for a professional who can effectively manage a digital classroom for both synchronous live learners via Google Meet and asynchronous self-paced students using our learning management system. The ideal candidate will excel at building meaningful, positive relationships with a diverse student population while ensuring that teaching and learning decisions are data-driven whenever possible.

In addition to daily instruction, teachers are expected to submit weekly lesson plans to the Instructional Coach and actively build rapport by contacting students and parents each day.

To support high-quality online instruction, we provide a premium suite of digital tools, backed by a dedicated Instructional Coach. This toolkit includes Schools

PLP for curriculum, IXL for standards mastery and diagnostics, and Synergy for attendance and grading. To maintain an interactive and secure virtual environment, teachers utilize tools such as Pear Deck, Edpuzzle, Classroom screen, and GoGuardian, along with gamification resources like Blooket, Kahoot, and PBIS Rewards to distribute "Byte Bucks."

Candidates must currently reside in Arizona, maintain a reliable high-quality home internet connection for seamless video streaming, and possess strong knowledge of Google Workspace, Google Meet, and Google Voice.
