Classroom Teachers are committed members of a grade-level team that is closing the opportunity gap for not only the students in their classroom and grade but also the school. A Prodeo Academy Classroom Teacher is intensely focused on each student’s growth. To do this, the Classroom Teacher provides a loving, structured classroom rooted in high expectations for behavior and learning. The Classroom Teacher will report to the Principal and will work in partnership with all members of the school team and the Grade Team Leader. This opportunity is ideal for someone who is energized by challenging work, hungry for feedback, and able to work collaboratively across lines of difference with an emphasis on cultural sensitivity and inclusiveness. ABOUT PRODEO Prodeo Academy, a network of public charter schools serving the Twin Cities, is a meaningful education solution that is closing the opportunity gap through data-driven instruction in a culture based on a foundation of five core values: Perseverance, Respect, Integrity, Development, and Engagement.
