About The Position
EPIC Academy is a dynamic educational institution dedicated to fostering academic excellence and empowering students to reach their full potential. Located in the vibrant city of Chicago, we are committed to providing an innovative and inclusive learning environment that prepares students for success in a rapidly evolving world. EPIC Academy proudly serves one of the most resilient student demographics in Chicago, with 96% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, 25% having Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), and 15% being English Language Learners. On average, our 9th graders enter with academic skills at the 4th-grade level. Despite the prevailing expectation in the area that high school graduation is the ultimate goal, we view these so-called "obstacles" as opportunities to build upon our students' strengths. At EPIC, we have three overarching goals for every student: Be Prepared for College, Develop College-Bound Beliefs and Behaviors, and Graduate from College. To achieve these goals, we inspire our students to envision their future, provide transformative experiences that broaden their horizons, and cultivate the academic skills necessary to reach their aspirations. EPIC Academy is dedicated to creating an inclusive educational environment that respects and harnesses the diversity of our student community. We are currently seeking a motivated and skilled Diverse Learner Instructor who is committed to fostering a classroom where every student achieves their potential. This position requires a valid Illinois PEL with an LBS1 endorsement.
