Position Description & Application Process for Guest Teacher (Substitutes)
Liberty STEAM Charter: A School of Inquiry, Innovation, and Impact
*If you are ended the 23-24 SY, the only requirement to complete in order to maintain your activated status is the completion of your SAFE SCHOOLS training modules.*
Overview
_________________________________________________________________________
Liberty STEAM Charter, a tuition-free, open-enrollment public charter school is located in Sumter, South Carolina, and opened in the Fall of 2021, serving 192 scholars in kindergarten and first grade. The first-ever of its existence in the community, the charter school will serve scholars in grades K-12 at its build-out with grade levels being phased in overtime to ensure quality educational programming is offered to all enrolled scholars.
This unique opportunity to open a school offers its founding staff autonomy and leadership opportunities. The vision and mission of the school is predicated upon a general theory of action that has been well-communicated by early supporters who believe if a school existed which emphasized a focus on STEAM career fields through project-based learning and personalized learning, seeking to provide scholars with a blend of rigorous & relevant academic and workplace learning experiences, then its graduates will leave with the competencies necessary to be successful in college or career.
As such, the school will eventually serve as the cradle-to-college/workforce pipeline in the Sumter community and become an integral part of a holistic revitalization approach. We are governed by a nine-member Board of Directors that represent a cross-section of our community. By leveraging innovative practices common to some of the state and nation’s top-performing public schools, Liberty STEAM Charter School is ready to shatter the opportunity gap for all scholars. In addition to a project-based learning approach with an integration of the STEAM curriculum, scholars are provided with a strong foundation in literacy to help define and achieve their dreams.
Guest Teacher Employment Opportunity
Liberty STEAM Charter is committed to the long-term development of our scholars, supporting their ultimate success in college and in life. We tailor our rigorous approach to meet the specific needs of our scholars including the core knowledge, critical thinking, independence, and self-advocacy skills that are essential for scholars. In order to do that, every classroom is staffed with two teachers – one who serves as a lead teacher (a master teacher) and a teaching fellow who also functions in an instructional capacity.
LSC is seeking to hire a pool of 10 highly qualified guest teachers to join a group of talented lead educators for the 2022-23 school year on an as-needed basis. Candidates must be excited and prepared for the challenges of building a high-performing public charter school. The ideal guest teacher candidate has a documented track record of excellence in working with children and will be responsible for assisting our scholars in achieving off-the-chart record results during the time in which they serve. Additionally, the ideal candidate is especially committed to serving low SES and minority scholars, self-reflective, data-driven, results-oriented, mission-focused, open to and actively seeks constructive feedback, and is tenacious about scholar college & career readiness.
The guest teacher position provides an opportunity for talented individuals with varying amounts of teaching experience to explore the field of education and to gain hands-on practice. Substitute Teachers will also assist with a variety of work inside and outside of the classroom, including instructing classes, supporting arrival/dismissal and class transitions, and participating in school-wide activities and celebrations
