We're looking for someone to teach two sections of a Modern World History course to students ages 12-15. If you are also able to teach English Literature, we may have a full-time option available. Please submit both a resume and a cover letter to Indeed. The cover letter should include: your relevant background, why you are interested in teaching at this school, and why you believe you are a good candidate for this position.
Our core classes run M-TH, and you would have two courses (hour-long) with an average of 10-13 students in each section. On the lightest weeks, you would just be responsible for teaching for 8 hours (2-hours a day, 4 days a week). Other weeks will require a number of hours for preparation and grading. Your pay will reflect the time needed outside of class, as well as the time spent teaching.
The Davidson Academy, a secondary school in Reno, Nevada, serves profoundly gifted students who progress through a rigorous curriculum in which students are grouped by ability, not by age. While the DA is a public school, all students must score in the 99.9th percentile on nationally-normed intelligence and/or achievement tests, and they must go through a curriculum-based, day-long assessment to gain admittance. Located on the campus of the University of Nevada, Reno, the Academy is designated by Nevada legislation as a “university school for profoundly gifted pupils” (NRS Chapter 388C).
