Job description

The Academy of Scholars Seeks Certified Teachers

What’s your ‘Why?’ As an Educator, what gets you out of bed every morning with a spring to your step, eager to tackle a new day and new challenges? (We know it isn’t money, or you’d be dedicating your life to a less insistent, more lucrative endeavor.)

You pursued Education for a reason. We want to be able to hear, feel, taste and see your ‘Why’—even if you’ve been thwarted, up till now, in achieving it. We want a hungry leader whose ‘why’ burns hot and deep.

How eager are you to change the world for the better, one day at a time, one interaction at a time, in a setting where excellence is practiced—and expected—on a daily basis? If you’re chomping at the bit for an opportunity and challenge like this, please let us hear from you.

At the Academy of Scholars (AOS), we’re looking for amazing teachers. A private Christian elementary school in Decatur, Georgia, AOS is financially‑sound with a modern, technologically advanced facility, accredited with quality, dynamic teaching, and extraordinary education. And because we have a Chromebook for every student, we integrate technology into every class to provide the crucial hands‑on learning that students need to successfully enter the tech‑centric careers they’ll be entering later. Our unique audio‑visual recording system ensures students’ safety (all individuals entering and leaving the school and all classroom activities are recorded). The system helps us monitor, encourage, and guide teachers and lets parents view their children’s classrooms live (or at a later date) to see what’s going on without affecting the classroom dynamic. We combine the best of traditional education with business metrics and accountability. Our teachers incorporate biblical values throughout their daily instruction and we operate on Christian principles.

Our mission: Build an army of dynamic, pro‑active, transformational citizens, starting at the energetic, impressionable age of four, who will exceed expectations as teenagers and excel in every field of endeavor they ultimately choose to pursue as adults. In a metaphorical nutshell, we’re accepting human embers at age four and fanning them carefully into roaring flames to light the world wherever they go from here.

It’s a tall task. The faint‑hearted need not apply. We’re building top‑notch citizens in a top‑notch academy, so we need top‑notch teachers. We are seeking a distinguished, Georgia‑certified, 2nd Grade teacher to teach all subjects.
