About this Job

Oakstone Academy Palm Beach is happy to announce an opening for a Middle and High School Math Teacher for the 2024-2025 school year.

This position will allow you to work in a highly rewarding research-based social immersion model that integrates students with autism in general education classrooms with a low student-teacher ratio in a small nonprofit private school. Work in a highly collaborative setting, communicate and build rapport with parents, plan to standards, assess, provide grades, collect data, provide social and behavioral supports with mentorship and assistance, maintain a clean and orderly environment, provide incentives and consequences that focus on nurturing students, maintain high standards for character and academics, support clubs and evening activities as needed, support the school program in various ways, and enjoy watching children thrive and love school. This is the perfect position for the teacher who wants to contribute to the local community meaningfully. Our procedures include a background check to be completed after the position is offered.

About Oakstone Academy Palm Beach
In 2011, Dr. Rebecca Morrison coordinated with local parents and professionals in order to offer her Social Immersion educational model to families in Florida. Oakstone Academy remains the only empirically-based and peer-reviewed model for inclusion in the area. Dr. Morrison’s program has been in operation in Ohio for over seventeen years, and parents across the nation are looking forward to a day when an opportunity like this could be offered to their children in their state. We are honored to bridge the gap between theory and practice, by implementing a rigorous and innovative program not offered elsewhere in the area. Oakstone Academy Palm Beach is a private school that offers an alternative to the run-of-the-mill school experience. Thanks to talented, highly-qualified teachers and small class sizes, Oakstone Academy Palm Beach can meet the needs of a variety of learning styles. In fact, Oakstone is the only school in Florida that was founded on the principle of providing a truly inclusive environment for children with autism spectrum disorders utilizing sound research and practice, allowing students to be full participants in the classroom with peers who do not have disabilities. Our small size, low ratio, and highly differentiated curriculum allows students to progress at their personal speed. English language learners are welcomed and benefit from a highly effective research-based Reading curriculum. In order to meet the needs of all of our students, the educators at Oakstone Academy have developed a program of excellence for typical as well as gifted students. Our inclusive setting has been a rewarding success for all of our students: those on the autism spectrum develop social and academic competency while students without disabilities develop compassion and leadership. Gifted students are offered content at their level. We proudly serve gifted and advanced learners who strive to cultivate compassion and leadership skills while learning at their pace. We welcome with open arms students who may be above or below grade level, as well as students who require an intimate setting to succeed. Behavioral supports in our program have aided children so that they may develop confidence and address any impediment to success. We believe that all children can succeed and maximize their potential.
