Inspire Growth, Empathy, and Life Skills in our Middle School 15:1:1 Program

Middle school is a time of immense transition, self-discovery, and social-emotional growth. Are you an educator who loves the energy, potential, and uniqueness of middle schoolers? Greenville Middle School is seeking a dedicated, relationship-driven educator to lead our Self-Contained 15:1:1 classroom. We want someone who can build a tight-knit classroom community that balances academic progress with social-emotional development and functional life skills.

  • Why This Role is Unique: In this 15:1:1 setting, you have the opportunity to serve as a steady anchor for students navigating their middle school years. Your classroom will be a hub of safety and high expectations. You will focus not only on foundational academic curricula but also on building social communication, problem-solving, and the executive functioning skills essential for a successful transition to high school.

  • The Greenville Advantage: Our middle school is dedicated to a culture of wellness and belonging. You will have the full support of our robust instructional support team, school counselors, psychologists, and administrators, working together to wrap services around each child.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Deliver modified, highly engaging instruction across core subject areas tailored to the unique learning profiles of students in a 15:1:1 middle school classroom.

  • Foster a strong class culture centered on restorative practices, social-emotional learning (SEL), and peer collaboration.

  • Write, implement, and track progress on IEP goals, with professional and empathetic advocacy.

  • Facilitate transitions to ensure your students feel connected to the broader Greenville Middle School community.

 

Job Qualifications
  • NYS Certification in Students with Disabilities 

  • Experience adapting curriculum, managing diverse behavioral needs, and building structured classroom routines.

  • A passionate belief in the potential of middle school students and a commitment to helping them find their voice.
