About This Role
Teachers are responsible for supporting the emotional and educational needs of young children. They must intentionally prepare and maintain an enriched learning environment and engage in meaningful conversations with children all day, every day. Teachers routinely assess the needs of each child in their class and then use this assessment data to differentiate and individualize instruction. Teachers are held accountable for supervising and nurturing children, responding to their interests and needs, and making learning meaningful. They implement the curriculum, supervise other members of the teaching staff (Assistants, Support Staff and Substitutes), and work with diverse families, administrators, and team members.
