Description: The Paraprofessional supports diverse learners in and outside of the classroom while further developing their own teaching practice.

We’re searching for a qualified paraprofessional to join us in delivering the high-quality learning we’re known for. The ideal candidate has experience in this role and is flexible in adapting to the changing demands of a classroom. This person will work closely with an assigned teacher and provide support by working with students individually and in groups, assisting with lesson plans and materials, grading homework, and writing progress reports. In order to thrive in this role, the paraprofessional must be caring, compassionate, and committed to each student’s success.

  • Provide instructional reinforcement of lesson plans, under direction of classroom teacher

  • Serve as a positive, nurturing guide for students

  • Model the school’s professional and ethical standards when interacting with students, parents, staff, and community members

  • Supervise students in both instructional and assessment activities, in and out of the classroom

  • Participate in planning sessions with the learning team, communicating with parents and school officials when necessary

  • Co-teach lesson components, as determined by the teacher, by leading small-group and individual discussions and reviewing classwork

  • Attend to students’ physical, personal, academic, and emotional needs, providing assistance with language translation and hygiene when necessary

  • Organize classroom and teaching materials, and verify and track student attendance

  • Perform clerical duties such as typing, filing, and photocopying; grade tests and homework; track student progress

  • Establish and maintain collaborative working relationships with students, parents, and staff, and participate in parent–teacher conferences and faculty meetings and events

  • Additional duties assigned by supervisor.


Community Engagement and Stewardship

  • We are crew, not passengers, and we uphold that ideal as we support each other in reaching our shared goals.

  • Every adult in our community is a teacher and a role model, and we model and implement Expeditionary Learning design principles and core practices to the best of our ability in our roles.

  • Advance the educational mission of the school by participating in duties and responsibilities consistent with building, upholding and promoting a strong Codman community.

  • We actively value and solicit feedback in order to improve performance.

  • In addition to core teaching responsibilities, all Codman staff members share responsibility for management and supervision of additional daily duties, including but not limited to breakfast, lunch, recess, crew, club, work block, and office hours. Duties will be distributed to ensure that all teacher schedules include:

    • 30 minute lunch break per day

    • 2 hours of prep time per week (Monday through Thursday)

    • 30 minutes of co-planning time with subject teacher per week (Fridays)

  • Experience working with students

  • Effective communication skills with adults and children

  • Understanding of basic principles of childhood development
