Reading Success Teacher

Position Vacancy for the 2026-27 School Year

Applications will be accepted Friday, February 13, 2026 12:00 AM - Friday, March 6, 2026 11:59 PM (Central Standard Time)

The Hallsville District, a four-day calendar school, is accepting applications for a middle school reading success teacher for the  school year. An RSP is a well‑developed and defined plan to support students who exhibit a substantial deficiency in reading. The development of an RSP includes the process of gathering and analyzing student data, determining if a student has a substantial reading deficiency, using data to set student growth goals, and assessing whether students meet those goals at the end of instruction.

Students who receive an RSP must have evidence‑based reading instruction that is grounded in the science of reading. An RSP is designed to monitor the specific skills needing improvement as identified through a state‑approved assessment, a dyslexia screener, teacher observation, or any other relevant student reading data. The teacher should use the identified skills to select aligned, appropriate, and explicit interventions, as well as progress‑monitoring tools to measure growth.

This teacher will also supervise the cafeteria for 30 minutes and supervise in‑school support for 30 minutes. We provide employees with paid health benefits and life insurance options.

We also expect to have openings in coaching positions.
