**Job Description**:
We are looking for an amazing homeroom/Spanish teacher to join our team teaching elementary students.
You would be joining a highly dynamic and energetic team that seeks to bring out the best in each student.
Our classes range from 10 to 29 students,
and you would be working with two classes at the most, on the same grade level.
Working hours are 7:00-3:00.
A typical day starts with motor lobby duty.
Class periods range from 45-to 50 minutes.
Some days you will have at least one "free" period while students have other classes (technology, religion, music, sports).
Other duties you would be expected to cover our lunch/recess according to a rotating schedule among all teachers and dismissal which is covered by all teachers daily and takes about 20 minutes, after which you can go home even if it is before your "official" school day is over.
We offer gender-separated education, in mixed environments.
This means that classes are taught in single-gender classrooms but all other activities are co-ed.
You could even design lessons in which the girls present their work to the boys and vice versa, or have a joint project which would be worked on by each class and put together.
We are currently shifting from traditional education to active-learning environments, so any ideas you have that make our students work in a cooperative, active, and reflective way are welcome!
We favor differentiation and gamification, and we are sure that your ideas will benefit the community!
Being Catholic is not a requirement for the position, but you would be required to support the activities carried out by the school and attend functions such as First Friday Mass and Daily Communion with your students as a chaperone.
Payment is on the 15th and last day of the month.
