Our pedagogy is grounded in continuing revelation, reflection, integrity, and a willingness to accept responsibility. From Nursery to Grade 12, our&nbsp;students participate in a process designed to foster creative, critical, and flexible thinking, along&nbsp;with compassion. As they transform from playful children to skilled, self-possessed teenagers, they are always intellectually curious and engaged thinkers. Friends&rsquo; Central prepares graduates&nbsp;to succeed in college and in life.\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nFriends&rsquo; Central School seeks full-time Lower School Assistant Teachers. Ideal candidates will demonstrate knowledge of and experience in hands-on and integrated learning; be highly motivated, hard-working, collaborative, and flexible; demonstrate a desire to learn; show initiative; and have a sense of humor. In addition to having the required professional and educational background, we seek a passionate, motivated, and energetic candidate.&nbsp;\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nAssistant Teacher positions are 10-month, exempt positions and will be under the supervision of the Lower School Assistant Principal. Employment letters may be renewed on an annual basis and are sent on or around March for the next academic school year.&nbsp;&nbsp;\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nLower School Assistant Teacher Program\\n\\nThe Assistant Teacher Program (ATP) serves as the cornerstone of our thriving Lower School community by transforming classrooms into dynamic teaching and learning environments for both students and educators. ATP creates a sustainable model for adequate staffing, mentorship, and educational excellence while ensuring high-quality support in Nursery-2nd grade. The two pathways recognize how our excellent educators have diverse career goals and prepare them accordingly.\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nCareer Assistant Teacher Pathway: Assistant Teachers are selecting the pathway that places them as career assistant teachers and decide to not pursue a lead teaching position at FCS Lower School. This track validates the Assistant Teacher role as a valued, long-term career choice and continues to excel at the supportive and relational aspects of teaching. For Assistant Teachers, the collaborative nature of the program fosters authentic professional development through daily mentorship, shared problem-solving and reflective practice. This pathway allows educators committed to their craft of assistant teaching to be supported through their own growth and to fine-tune their skills alongside mentor teachers and the Assistant Principal.&nbsp;\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nResponsibilities:\\n\\n\\n\\tAssists the Lead Teacher in preparing the classroom each school day\\n\\tAssists the Lead Teacher with reviewing and organizing student work\\n\\tSupports small group learning in partnership with the Lead Teacher\\n\\tSupervises student transitions within and outside of the classroom\\n\\tProvides careful supervision of students during snack, recess, and lunch&nbsp;&nbsp;\\n\\tSupports the healthy social and emotional development of each child&nbsp;\\n\\tDevelops positive working relationships with students and their families\\n\\tWorks alongside lead teachers to create and update classroom communication, including weekly communications and Seesaw posts&nbsp;\\n\\tSupports the Lead Teacher in preparing for conferences and report cards\\n\\tFulfills Lead Teacher role in the absence of the Lead Teacher\\n\\tHas morning care duty and other duties as assigned\\n\\tMeets monthly with the Lower School Assistant Principal\\n\\tEngages in yearly performance evaluations with the Lower School Assistant Principal&nbsp;\\n\\tParticipate in a school life committee to support the school&rsquo;s commitment to continued learning and shared leadership&nbsp;\\n\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nAspiring Lead Teacher Pathway: \\n\\nAssistant teachers may have prior teaching experience or be new to teaching. The Aspiring Lead pathway is a 3-year program at the Lower School with the goal of pursuing Lead Teaching positions at FCS or beyond. This track serves as an intentional pathway towards confidence and competence in developing the full skill set needed to acquire a Lead role. The ATP provides professional growth opportunities for Assistant Teachers to strengthen their existing skills and talents, experiences with highly qualified educational mentors, and professional development workshops for those who seek lead teaching opportunities. The goal is to build a pipeline of skilled educators who deeply understand our school culture, community values, and pedagogical approach, and desire a lead teaching position.\\n\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nResponsibilities:&nbsp;\\n\\n\\n\\tAforementioned responsibilities of the Assistant Teacher\\n\\tActively collaborates with the Lead Teacher, Specialist Teachers, and Support Services Team (as needed) on classroom programming, activities, and responsibilities\\n\\tThroughout the course of the program, aspiring leads will work up to planning and executing lessons or units in Social/Emotional, Math, Literacy, and/or Social Studies in partnership with the Lead Teacher.&nbsp;\\n\\t\\n\\t\\tYear 1: Leads Morning Meeting (Responsive Classroom), Meeting for Worship Facing Bench, and content lessons in the spring\\n\\t\\tYear 2: Continuation of year one plus a scheduled rotation of Fundations, Literacy, Math, and Social Studies\\n\\t\\n\\t\\n\\tAssists the Lead Teacher in preparing for conferences and co-facilitates the communication about their students as assigned&nbsp;&nbsp;\\n\\tAssists the Lead Teacher in report card writing and co-authors narratives as assigned\\n\\tMeets weekly with the Lower School Assistant Principal\\n\\t\\n\\t\\tYear 1: Weekly meetings\\n\\t\\tYear 2 &amp; 3: Bi-weekly meetings\\n\\t\\n\\t\\n\\tActively participates in aspiring lead teacher professional development opportunities\\n\\tEngages in yearly performance evaluations with the Lower School Assistant Principal\\n\\t\\n\\t\\tSeasonal peer observations and feedback\\n\\t\\tLead/mentor teacher feedback\\n\\t\\n\\t\\n\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nAttendance\\n\\n\\n\\t7:45 am to 3:45 pm in addition to required professional commitments (i.e. faculty meetings, committee meetings, Admissions events, Parent Teacher conferences, etc.)\\n\\tAttends weekly faculty meetings and school-wide professional development days&nbsp;\\n\\n\",\"employmentType\":\"FULL_TIME\",\"hiringOrganization\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"FRIENDS CENTRAL SCHOOL CORPORATION\",\"logo\":\"https://www.paycomonline.net/v4/ats/web.php/application/style/logo?clientkey=7B66CFADC1C7D92E90E262183449B1C9\"},\"jobLocation\":{\"@type\":\"Place\",\"address\":{\"streetAddress\":\"228 Old Gulph Road\",\"addressLocality\":\"Wynnewood\",\"addressRegion\":\"PA\",\"postalCode\":19096,\"addressCountry\":\"USA\"}},\"qualifications\":\"Ideal candidates will:\\n\\n\\n\\tDemonstrate an active and earnest commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, including anti-bias and anti-racist practices\\n\\tPossess the willingness to partner with colleagues intentionally&nbsp;\\n\\tShow interest in learning about thematic teaching&nbsp;\\n\\tExude the mindset of a lifelong learner\\n\\tHave an interest in Quaker education \\n\\n\\nQualifications:\\n\\n\\n\\tBachelor&rsquo;s degree in progress or earned in a related field&nbsp;\\n\\tA passion for teaching and learning\\n\\tA desire to work with young children&nbsp;\\n\\n\\n&nbsp;\\n\\nPlease apply here.
