Teaching Associates (TAs) work under the supervision of a lead teacher, providing additional assistance and instruction to students. TAs typically work one-on-one or with small groups of students to help them understand and apply the learning taught by the classroom teacher. They often circulate around the classroom while students are completing assignments and assist students who need additional support or extensions. Likewise, TAs support teachers with other duties and responsibilities to ensure the classroom is clean and organized and materials are prepared for student use. Learning by doing is a core value of being a TA. In this role, TAs are encouraged to learn and grow their professional toolbox all with the goal of becoming future lead teachers. We are seeking a TA for transitional kindergarten and a TA for first grade.
