About this job
Looking for a rockstar!
Blackfoot Charter is a growing, mid-sized school of 400 students located in Blackfoot, ID. Outdoor opportunities abound and we are a short drive from two larger cities of Idaho Falls and Pocatello. We are located in a new facility built in 2023, we operate an internal Child Nutrition Program, have our own transportation/bussing department, as well as participating in the East Idaho Charter Sports League. Blackfoot Charter encourages accountability, positive support and kindness when interacting with stakeholders, students, peers and staff. Our students take the Knights Oath (Ownership, Attitude, Teamwork, and Honor) each day and we work to create a positive supportive learning environment for our students and staff through PBIS, along with a strong focus on academics and remediation. We operate on a 4 day school week, with 1 Friday a month set aside for staff development, planning and team building. Our staff is a supportive group of tight-knit educators with a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences that make Blackfoot Charter an excellent place to work!
We are looking for a strong team member with a record of student academic success or who is able to work closely with their team and build those successes through Professional Learning Communities. Strong communication skills, data analysis skills and knowledge of PBIS are a plus.
