Job Summary
About Us: We are a public TK-8 school district on the picturesque Mendocino coast, boasting multi-grade classrooms in an idyllic setting. Students and staff enjoy outdoor learning opportunities, including our robust school garden, composting, and easy access to place-based learning through local field trips. The town of Manchester is located on the coast, among rolling pastures, vast hillsides of forestland, and the rugged surf of the Pacific Ocean. Residents enjoy an active, outdoor lifestyle and represent a range of social, economic, and educational backgrounds. Manchester School thrives on this diversity and is focused on a sense of belonging for all students and families powered by caring, trusting relationships. Manchester is one of California’s 200 schools with an enrollment of one hundred students or less, allowing for a unique educational experience as a public, dual-language, micro-school where all students can truly experience personalized learning. Our classes are small and our staff are dedicated, enjoying teacher autonomy and inquiry-based learning. Throughout the day, students rotate through small-group learning stations, engaged in high-quality, personalized learning while gaining biliteracy in English and Spanish. We are focused on the power of multiliteracy, teaching our students to read, write, and speak in both English and Spanish. Starting in TK-2nd grade, students are immersed in early Spanish literacy and instruction in Spanish for 60% of their day with 40% of their day being in English. With each year of school, students are introduced to more English until promoted to high school as biliterate scholars, with biliteracy pathway recognition. Manchester’s students matriculate to the Point Arena Joint Union High School system.
