Candidates for this position should have an understanding of research-based practices for reading and math instruction, intervention, and assessment; an ability to work well on a team; and the flexibility to work with a number of different students both in the classroom and in small-group settings. An in-depth understanding of the Vermont Multi-Layered Systems of Support (MLSS) framework is vital. The ideal candidate will have experience implementing best practices in mentoring and coaching teachers as well as leading teaching teams. Candidates should be licensed, or licensable, in Math or ELA middle-level education in the state of Vermont. This is a one-year position. The salary range for this position is between $57,500 to $96,632 dependent upon education and directly related teaching experience. Dummerston School is a PreK-8 community school just north of Brattleboro, VT with approximately 165 students. All students have daily opportunities to learn and play outside on our 20-acre campus that includes a forest trail, outdoor classrooms, student-tended gardens, soccer and baseball fields, and a variety of play structures. Visual arts, library and media, instrumental music, general music, chorus, sports, and physical education are core components all students experience at Dummerston School. We implement a Multi-Layered System of Support where all students engage in both enriching core academic, social, and emotional instruction, as well as necessary interventions based on their unique profile as learners. To support our students' social, emotional, and academic growth and sense of connection to self and others, we implement the Developmental Designs Framework at Dummerston School in all grades, PreK-8. This framework provides common language, experiences, and opportunities that support us in flourishing as learners and as active and engaged members of a diverse community. These experiences include the student-led development of a schoolwide social contract each September, daily Morning Meetings, weekly community-based events, such as All-School Meetings and Buddy Classroom time, and student-led conferences. Through this work, we seek to support students in understanding themselves as learners and in shaping their unique pathway toward success. The Windham Southeast School District (WSESD) is an increasingly diverse community with an ongoing commitment to social justice and anti-racism. We are looking for enthusiastic professionals to join us in furthering this work.
