Elementary
Atlanta, GA Part Time
POSTED ON 4/2/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 1/1/2050

Employment Type: This 10 month position is 10 hours of contact time with students weekly, with 2 hours allotted for preparation. It is part-time and not eligible for benefits. 

Start Date: August 2025

 

Job Summary:

Paideia is a pre-K-12 college preparatory school of 1003 students in the Emory University area of Atlanta; the elementary school enrolls approximately 330 students.  The elementary program includes twelve full-day, self-contained classrooms.  There are two teachers in each class of twenty-six to twenty-eight children.  Teachers work together as lead teacher and assistant or as two co-lead teachers.  Children remain with their own teacher throughout the day with the exception of classes with specialists including art, library, music, physical education, and science.  

 

Paideia’s philosophy is based on the belief that to educate well, schools must be individualized.  The elementary school faculty emphasizes the acquisition of basic academic skills.  The development of social skills is an important part of every learning experience at Paideia.  Teachers frequently employ nontraditional means to achieve these traditional goals.  Most academic work in the elementary school level is carried out through individually prescribed instruction in mixed-age or multi-age classrooms that emphasize individual challenge and achievement rather than competition. 

 

The elementary science curriculum provides a flexible program that covers a range of topics and concepts, provides a basic understanding of scientific methods, supports the classroom teachers’ interests and enthusiasms, and connects with other studies such as math or social studies going on in the classroom.

 

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

The specific responsibilities of the Elementary Science Teacher include:

  • Co-develop and co-teach STEAM curriculum for the elementary school being mentored by and working collaboratively with the full-time Elementary Science Teacher

  • Assist in the organization of the Earth Day Festival and other special events,
  • Facilitate hands-on, independent activities with students in a MakerSpace 
  • Assist, support, & encourage students in the development of new skills.

 

Required Skills / Abilities:

 

We are looking for someone who has a passion for learning and a desire to develop a knowledge of current best practices in early elementary science education; a love and understanding of children and early childhood; a knowledge, understanding, and successful exhibition of learning strategies to support all students in learning to use their minds well; skills in integrating curriculum and providing connectedness for learners; clear communication skills; the ability to work collaboratively as a part of a team; and the ability to create a positive, nurturing environment for the student.  

 

Minimum Qualifications:

Applicants should have a degree in science, elementary science education, or a related field, and three to five years of experience.
