Job Description

Join Lakes Country Academy (LCA), a Level IV setting in beautiful, lake-filled west-central Minnesota, as a Special Education Teacher supporting students referred by their resident school districts. LCA offers smaller caseloads and staff-to-student ratios than a typical district setting, shorter student days that build in daily time for paperwork, prep, and team collaboration, and a trauma-informed, relationship-based model that blends academics with functional life skills, employability training, and social-emotional learning.

Your Role Will Include:

Provide specialized instruction to K-12 students with emotional/behavioral disorders (EBD) in a Level IV setting. Collaborate with a full support team: paraprofessionals, behavior specialists (BCBA/RBT), a school psychologist, and a school social worker. Deliver holistic, trauma-sensitive programming blending academics, functional life skills, and employability training. Manage IEP compliance and progress monitoring for assigned caseload.

Qualifications:

Licensed Minnesota Special Education Teacher (Tier 3 or 4) in Emotional Behavior Disorders (EBD) preferred. Tier 1 or 2 licensure, or Out-of-Field Permission. Experience working with K-12 students with behavioral challenges preferred. Passion for collaborative, student-centered instruction.

Salary and Benefits:

Salary:

$55,998-$86,871, based on license and experience. Health, dental, and vision insurance. Life and long-term disability insurance. 403(b) and TRA retirement contributions. Generous sick leave. Strong administrative and behavioral team support.

Location & Shift Times:

Fergus Falls Lakes Country Academy.

Start time:

8:00am.

Shift type:

Full-time (school-year schedule). For the 2026-2027 school year; school start date: September 1, 2026. NFI0bDYD2d
