Position Schedule: Teachers are paid year round on a salary. Their student contact days (177) and their professional development days and parent conference days adds up to a 195 day work year, with an additional 5 days of training for new teachers. However, the work teachers do outside those days planning, reflecting and pursuing professional growth is also an important part of being an excellent teacher. Teachers are expected to be on campus ready for students by 7:30 am and to stay until 4:00 each day school is in session, and to 4:30 on Wednesdays when we have early release days for students followed by teacher P.D. or planning meetings. There are two weeks of professional development every summer before school begins which is part of the accounted professional development days.

HIGHLINE OVERVIEW: Highline Academy is a community of diverse youth and adults striving together for academic, civic, and personal excellence. Founded in 2004, Highline is committed to inclusive excellence. In 2013, we launched our second school in Green Valley Ranch. Our students come from fifty countries, speak 26 different languages, represent a full range of socio-economic backgrounds, and previous educational experiences. Our diverse and integrated community has already begun to achieve excellence. Highline students have consistently out-performed district and state averages. Strong faculty and student retention rates are emblematic of the school's positive culture and strong community.
Highline has a commitment to a liberal arts education which includes Art, Music, Spanish and P.E. instruction for our students. We have high expectations for all of our learners, with an understanding that some learners need more or different instruction. We have Performance Group teachers at each grade level which enable us to give smaller group instruction for the core content areas of math and language arts. Additionally, we have a robust intervention program with additional supports available as students show they need them. We are a fully inclusive organization for students with special needs, who are integrated into the general education classrooms. We have a character education program designed by Highline called Reach. This teaches, practices, and celebrates the Reach values of responsibility, empowerment, aspiration, citizenship and honesty. All our students are taught to Reach Out to support and care about their classmates and community, Reach In to learn about themselves and reflect about their learning and Reach Up to their very best academic achievement. We are a students' first, growth mindset organization and we expect all of our employees to model these values. All Highline employees are expected to read and follow all policies as written in the employee handbook and to review it annually for updates.
Major Responsibilities: All Highline teachers must show clear competency and reliable practice of the following indicators:
Create a Positive Classroom Culture and Climate
Practice Effective Classroom Management
Plan and implement Masterful Content Delivery
Practice High-Impact Instructional Moves
Demonstrate Essential Knowledge of Students and Use of Data
Demonstrate Effective Collaboration and Engagement with students and colleagues
Demonstrate thoughtful reflection, learning and development
All Highline teachers are also expected to demonstrate the Highline Internal Commitments for Professional Practice.
We will take responsibility for student learning by valuing diversity, needs, learning styles and through shared ownership.
We will commit to being clear and purposeful in our objectives and instruction while continuing to reflect and revise learning strategies by frequently monitoring student assessment data and ensuring that it is used as a tool for learning.
We accept and embrace diversity within our community of faculty, students, and parent/guardians by valuing each other for who and where we all are in life as learners and as people, and we commit to providing a safe place for all to succeed.
We will be direct, intentional, timely, and graceful in giving and receiving communication without judgment and for positive and proactive purposes.
We will create an environment that empowers faculty, students and parent/guardians to be active participants in student success.
We will create a focused and sustainable adult community by focusing on what is most essential to student success and staying focused on Highline's goal.
We will consistently model and enforce Highline's academic and behavioral expectations.
Flex Teacher Responsibilities: The role of the Flex Teacher is very important in reducing disruption for students during the school year. Flex teachers maybe assigned to long term substitute roles for planned leaves such as maternity, unplanned leaves, or unexpected termination of employment. The Flex teacher may also be asked to sub one day at a time as needed for teachers who are out for illness or other reasons. Flex teachers may also be asked to provide additional supervision, proctor assessments, or help as needed anywhere in the school as deemed necessary by the campus principal. The Flex teachers collaborate with their grade level peers to provide a rigorous and yet supportive curriculum for every student. Flex teachers will take on all duties and roles assigned to the teacher they are covering for.
Teachers may be expected to collect and enter data into the school learning management system based on standards aligned assessments. If a Flex Teacher has a Teaching Assistant, they are expected to provide the Teaching Assistant with appropriate assignments for students and tasks in the classroom and also guidance for how to work well with all students in their classroom.
Teachers are expected to build positive relationships with their students and also hold them to high expectations. Teachers should manage their classes with positive proactive systems and strong rituals and routines. They are also expected to seek out more information and support from other staff members (the SIT team, admin, other grade level teachers etc.) if a student is not doing well either behaviorally or academically. At Highline we believe in a student's first approach at all times, and our teachers are the foundation of this work.
Teachers are expected to contribute to regular newsletters sent home about the work of the grade level and help create community by engaging parents through inviting them to participate as volunteers or in class events (such as literacy or math day), and to build relationships with families through phone calls and both formal and informal meetings. Teachers should work to ensure all families attend the student conferences held twice a year. Teachers are expected to participate in at least three evening or weekend events such as the music performances for their grade level, the Cultural Fair and the Fall festival
Teachers are expected to attend all professional development as assigned by their principal and participate with respect and attention.
