Company Name: Hiawathaacademies



Early College Seminar Job Summary HCHS teachers will be charged with providing a rigorous, fast-paced, and inspiring learning environment for all of their students. This teacher will serve on our school’s college team by supporting freshmen in building foundational high school skills (typing, powerpoint, excel, etc.) while also building the college knowledge necessary to give students the ‘why’ they need to work so hard in high school. In addition to teaching, this teacher will support the college team by leading on some pre-college programming. HCHS teachers are also advisors, adults committed to supporting a small group of students as they work to develop their academic and social-emotional selves. Advisors will be critical in HCHS’ model of student support, and those who stay for all four years of their advisees’ high school career will have the amazing privilege of handing their advisees their diplomas and wishing them well as they head off to college. Lastly, HCHS teachers are also founders of the school. Along with the administration, they will lay the strong foundation upon which HCHS will stand for years to come. Why Hiawatha?
