About The Position

The Social Studies Content Coach provides content-specific support to teachers in grades 3–10 to ensure consistent implementation of standards-aligned social studies curriculum and appropriate instructional pacing. This position partners with teachers to monitor standards coverage and mastery, analyze student performance, maintain alignment to pacing guides, and identify standards and content that require additional instruction, intervention, or reinforcement. The Social Studies Content Coach serves as a content-area resource to help teachers maintain a clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, what standards and content have been taught, what remains to be addressed, and where adjustments to pacing or instructional priorities may be necessary to support student achievement. While this is an online school position and all instruction occurs virtually, travel and face to face attendance will be required several times per year to support in person state testing and student events. This role is open to residents of Florida.
