About this job
Our K-12 Art teacher will work to support in art instruction within a STEM-focused Project-based Learning Charter School in Meridian, Idaho.
Pi STEM Learning Environment:
Teaching at Pi STEM is unlike teaching in a traditional environment. Our teachers know the individual strengths and growth areas for each student. We empower students to own their learning.
Teachers consider not only how students can integrate content information into their projects but also how they are applying cognitive skills (e.g. hypothesizing, artistic expression, etc.) that stretch across all content areas and the habits of success (e.g. perseverance) that allow them to prepare for the world beyond the classroom.
Pi STEM teachers do not see themselves as disseminators of knowledge but instead as facilitators and coaches to their students.
We are committed to continual growth at PiSTEM. We Prioritize developing leaders from within and are dedicated to providing professional development opportunities built into the academic year. We equip teachers with the tools necessary to improve their practice and tackle challenging issues.
What You Need:
K-12 Art Education Teaching Credential in Idaho
Bachelor’s Degree, Master's Degree a plus
Clear health and background check
Who You Are:
You maintain high expectations for all students and believe all students can find success in school, college, and life.
You embrace STEM education as a culture that crosses multiple disciplines.
You facilitate learning experiences, using a variety of methods: project-based learning, direct instruction, small group and individual tasks, formative and summative assessment, direct teacher feedback, public presentation, and more.
You are empathetic and culturally competent. You design and implement social and emotional learning experiences in all courses, and you’re open to having hard conversations.
You thrive in innovative environments and are comfortable with the ambiguity that can come with a dynamic and progressive workplace.
You are a leader and actively participate as a member of weekly faculty meetings.
You’re committed to continuous improvement, see feedback as a positive, and have a growth mindset.
