Full job description

Perks: Meaningful work, growth opportunity, ample built-in time off, PTO

About the School:

Here at Invictus: An Acton Academy we believe that children are capable of far more than we typically imagine. Our mission is to foster a growth mindset and help each hero (student) discover their unique calling. Our small, mixed-age classrooms are a modern twist on the classic one-room schoolhouse, where students learn to mentor and be mentored by one another. As a studio guide (think non-traditional teacher), you’ll play a vital role as the classroom facilitator, empowering heroes to take ownership not only of their education but also of the people they’re becoming.

Note on Acton academies: We are a proud affiliate of the world-wide Acton Academy network which is dedicated to creating learner-driven environments. You can learn more about this revolutionary model here: https://www.actonacademy.org/

Brief Job Description:

We’re looking for a full-time Apprentice Guide to oversee a mixed-age studio (classroom) ages 7 to 12.

This role also includes planning learning activities, documenting processes, and communicating with parents. The ideal candidate embraces new challenges and eagerly receives feedback as a tool to learn and grow.

Qualifications:

Lifelong learner: Maintains a posture of curiosity
Growth mindset: Welcomes feedback and is eager to learn and grown
Self-starter: Takes on new initiatives, is comfortable with some ambiguity, and has the courage to experiment, try new things, and make mistakes
Team oriented: Embraces opportunities for teamwork and collaboration
Work ethic: Professionals who are willing to work in a year-round program (with time off for holidays; and flexible hours during student breaks)
Experience working with children ages 7 to 12.
A deep respect for children and empathy for the challenges they face
A belief that healthy struggles are how we all grow
Bachelor’s degree preferred
Montessori training is a plus
Guide Responsibilities:

Training: Complete Acton guide training and ongoing professional development to deepen understanding of the Acton philosophy

Develop and implement individualized lesson plans, independent learning exercises, and curricula.
Foster a safe, clean, and stimulating environment where all students feel valued

Competitive salary based on experience
Meaningful work
At Invictus you have the opportunity to make a difference in a community-oriented environment. We think you’ll come to love the unique, engaged families that make up this school. We host regular events to involve parents in the learning process.
Ample built-in time off for holidays and flexible hours during frequent school breaks
The school is closed approximately seventy-five days per year. Some of this time is used for administrative work and team planning, but much of it is available for our team to rest and recharge before embarking on new topics with their studio. As a privately run school, we’ve chosen to provide more frequent “session breaks” throughout the year in addition to a six-week summer break (rather than the three-month summer break used in public schools).
Paid time off (PTO): In addition to holidays and scheduled school breaks, employees also get PTO to use during the school year.
Professional development and growth opportunities:
Our Apprentice Guide has the opportunity to grow swiftly and steadily into a Guide or Lead Guide as they develop their skills in the studio. Many guides eventually go on to open their own Acton Academies.
