Classroom Teacher

Job Overview
Brighter Futures was built for students who learn differently — and this role exists to make sure every one of them can actually access what we teach. As a Learning Support Specialist, you will work in small groups alongside the School Director, providing targeted academic, language, and social support for students who need more than a standard classroom can offer.

This is not a role for someone looking to manage a room. It is for someone who genuinely believes every student can learn — and who knows how to find the right door when the obvious one is closed.

• Collaborate with the School Director on differentiation strategies and progress monitoring
• Communicate regularly with families around student goals and progress
• Prepare and follow daily and weekly lesson plans, including materials for homeschool days
• Research and recommend interventions or resources as student needs evolve
• Participate in staff meetings and required professional development
• Keep your workspace organized and assessment documentation current

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Education, Special Education, or a related field
• 5 or more years of experience in intervention, tutoring, or special education
• Solid knowledge of common learning differences and evidence-based interventions
• Strong informal assessment and diagnostic skills
• Understanding of child development and differentiated instruction
• Clear background check and fingerprinting
• Patience and a genuine belief that all students can learn

Preferred Qualifications

• Special education credential or reading specialist certification

• Current CPR/First Aid certification
