Tree House Academy - More Info

Why Tree House:

Tree House Academy focuses on whole child education and preparing children for the world around them. We are looking for teachers who are hard-working and passionate about education and building connections to join our team! Just as we encourage our students to learn and think outside of the box, we also equip our teachers with the autonomy they need to take fresh, innovative approaches in their classrooms. 

You will be joining a team of welcoming, experienced and passionate people who are happy to share their knowledge with you and help you develop even further. If you have a passion for working with kids, love exploring new methods of teaching, and are excited to be part of a dynamic and collaborative team, then we'd love to have you join us! 

 

What You'll Do: 

Young Learner teachers work to create a rich and responsive learning environment and meet the individual needs of students in line with our school’s mission.

Our staff works to build meaningful relationships and dialogue with children warmly and respectfully that instills joy in learning and nurtures critical thinking, independence, and a positive self-concept. You will participate in team meetings and in ongoing professional development while also taking the initiative to seek out opportunities to build on professional knowledge.

Our Young Learner teachers work collaboratively with fellow grade-level teachers to plan syllabi and discuss/reflect on execution for each semester. Additionally, teachers share in communicating with parents regarding individual student progress and/or specific behaviors.
