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.

PHACS Special Education Model

Pharos Academy follows a push-in Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) Model for most grades. Key responsibilities of a SPED teacher include, but are not limited to :

• Collaborating with lead teachers to co-plan lessons & create modified lesson plans based on IEP goals.
• Identifying and supporting students in need of additional SETTS services (individual or small group).
• 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.
