Pre-K Teacher

A teacher at Positive Tomorrows is the primary educational service provider of the organization and
therefore must maintain a visionary, progressive, and evidence-based approach to educating students. The
teacher is responsible for providing an educational atmosphere where students experiencing homelessness
have the opportunity for intellectual, emotional, physical, and psychological growth, as directed by the
Purpose Statement, Mission Statement and Strategic Plan. The teacher is responsible for organizing and
implementing an instructional program that employs an arts-integrated approach and will result in
accelerated academic growth in each student. Teachers at Positive Tomorrows are responsible for focusing
on the teaching of Math, Reading & Writing, Social Studies, Science, Handwriting, and Spelling to students
at a variety of academic levels and social abilities. The simple view of reading is the model Positive
Tomorrows utilizes which incorporates the components of the science of reading (phonological awareness,
phonics and word recognition, fluency, vocabulary and oral language comprehension, and text
comprehension). Study skills and appropriate behavior are also taught in the classroom.
