LREI (Little Red School House & Elisabeth Irwin High School) is seeking a Learning Specialist to work with our 9th -12th grades for the 2024-2025 school year.
Overview Of The PositionLREI seeks a learning specialist to work collaboratively with teachers, advisors, the school Wellness team, outside support personnel and families to ensure the success of all learners in the high school. Through individualized learning support in the Learning Center, implementation of strategies within students’ classrooms, and coordination with outside support services, the learning specialist works to help all those connected to a student to understand their learning profile, and to have the tools and information they need to scaffold the student to proficiency in their academic program.
Successful Candidates Will
Founded in 1921 by Elisabeth Irwin (a contemporary and colleague of John Dewey, Caroline Pratt, and Lucy Sprague Mitchell), The Little Red School House has been at the vanguard of pedagogical innovation since its founding. LREI’s goal is to educate students to become independent thinkers and lifelong learners and to pursue academic excellence and individual achievement, in a context of respect for others and service to the community. We believe that learning should be active and experiential, with the school providing abundant opportunities for students to excel. We accept students with a range of abilities and talents who can take full advantage of a rich and demanding academic program in which each student is both challenged and supported. We seek to create within the school a community built on understanding and respecting others. Thus, our student body traditionally reflects the racial and cultural diversity of our city, and our curriculum is built on interdisciplinary studies to promote understanding of many cultures. While individual achievement is encouraged and rewarded, our program underscores the value of shared goals, friendship, and cooperation in mastering difficult tasks. The progressive ideals that in 1921 gave life and inspiration to the school — academic excellence and creativity, active learning and innovative teaching, respect for the individual and responsibility to the community - continue to guide the school today. LREI is located in vibrant Greenwich Village and classes venture forth often to use the neighborhood and the city to provide rich learning experiences.
Salary Range: $69,056.53 to $132,556.41 commensurate with experience.
