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.

PHACS Special Education Model

Pharos Academy follows an Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) Model in Elementary/Middle grades. Our SPED teachers specialize in and support primarily with 1 core content area (ELA or Math). Key responsibilities of a SPED teacher include, but are not limited to:

  • Supporting 1 grade band (ie; K-2nd, 6th-8th, 11th-12th) in their core content area.
  • Collaborating with lead teachers to co-plan lessons & create modified lesson plans based on IEP goals.
  • Developing, modifying, and/or updating IEPs in a timely manner.
  • Assessing student’s individual skills and educational needs.
  • Monitoring student progress in order to ensure students are on track to meet IEP goals.

*Our HS SPED Model follows a hybrid SETTS/ICT Model, and teachers can support more than one content area, depending on the needs of the students.

What We Are Looking For

  1. Commitment to daily and long-term instructional planning and preparation to ensure students get the most out of each class.
  2. 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.
  3. Commitment to using data to improve short term and long-term student achievement goals.
  4. Full accountability for student academic outcomes and classroom culture and a steadfast belief that all students can achieve.
  5. Commitment to being a team player (crew member) and belief in Pharos Academy’s core beliefs and educational viewpoint.

What We Offer You

  1. Competitive salary starting at $80,000.
  2. 401k plan with employer matching of 5 percent.
  3. Comprehensive benefits package - Medical/Dental/Vision.
  4. Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to further support employee health and wellness needs.
  5. Classrooms fully stocked with 1:1 technology and all essential classroom supplies.
  6. $100 monthly Grub Hub credit.
