Career Opportunities

SEALS Christian Academy, a NEW K-6 classical academy in Venice, FL, is looking for a few amazing part-time PARENT elementary or middle school teachers.

 

We are unapologetically Christian, teaching from a classical pedagogy and looking for born-again Christian parent teachers. Ideally, these individuals should be people who want to help grow a thriving educational platform where children are developed into men and women of character, courageous and deep thinkers, and heroes for the next generation.  

 

We are a unique and exciting hybrid between a homeschool co-op and a traditional private Christian school. 

​

If you are reading this then obviously you know what is required of you as a teacher, but here is a quick summary.

Ideal Candidate will:​

• A parent of kids in grades K-6 who will be attending SEALS

• Fully embrace our mission, vision, and core convictions

• Be seeking to truly be a part of a team working together to educate the next generation of godly men and women; this means being coachable, being a learner, being flexible, always seeking to improve, and being comfortable giving, receiving, and implementing constructive feedback in a caring environment

• Be interested in our key classical curricular and instructional programs

• Be open to having a community, family feel within the educational setting

Key Responsibilities:

• Create a classroom environment in which every child can succeed and which establishes high academic and behavior standards

• Be an awesome teacher by demonstrating spiritual growth to the children under your care

• Teach all approved curricula with fidelity

• Implement and support the academy-wide approach to classroom management and discipline

• Prepare and maintain appropriate records and progress reports

• Help to promote and maintain a professional environment

• Exhibit positive rapport, build strong relationships with, and maintain strong communication lines with students, guardians, parents and staff

• Hours are Tuesday to Friday, 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM, with Mondays being either a Mental Health Monday (you have off) or an Enhancement Monday (a work day for enhancement type classes such as field trips, special events and guest speakers).

​Required Qualifications:

• Born-again Christian for at least one year.

• College B.A. / B.S. degree (an education major not required)

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience teaching classical education, although we can teach you the nuances of teaching in a classical environment

• A teaching certificate is NOT required. Our accreditation will be through a private company, not the state of Florida

• Additional opportunities for coaching sports, arts, and leading club activities will be available
  ​

A BONUS for Teacher Parents:

​Parents who have a college B.A. and children in grades K-6 will receive reduced tuition for all children registered at SEALS as long as they are employed by SEALS. (Testing of your children is still required to make sure they can succeed in SEALS’ rigorous curriculum.)
