Afternoon Long Prairie Packing Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The EP Area Learning Center seeks to serve students who have previously withdrawn or disengaged from school but are excited to re-engage in innovative and flexible programming that provides: personalized, authentic, interdisciplinary learning; interpersonal counseling that focuses on whole student development and current + future life goals; and opportunities to cultivate personal relationships in a non-intimidating, small-scale setting.  The program serves ~60 students at a 15-to-1 staffing ratio.
This position will teach an interdisciplinary studio block course during the first half of each school day (rotating topics each term, with the opportunity for paid summer curriculum writing to develop new studio courses) and will teach a MyTime course focusing on student career/academic/wellness/relational goals during a portion of the afternoon (opposite the teacher's daily instructional prep time).
Questions about the position or school can be directed to EP ALC Program Administrator Ethan Dado (edado@edenpr.org).
