Teach differently. Reach students differently. Make a real impact.

Flex School is a unique, accredited private school network designed for gifted, twice-exceptional, and non-traditional learners. Our small classes, flexible academic pathways, and deeply supportive community empower creative, curious, and complex students to thrive - academically, socially, and emotionally.

We are a mission-driven environment where educators are encouraged to think outside the box, collaborate closely, and design learning experiences that meet students where they are while helping them grow into who they can become.

Full-Time and Part-Time candidates will be considered.

What You'll Do

  • Create and maintain Learning Profiles in collaboration with the school counselors
  • Empower students to understand their learning profiles and advocate for their needs.
  • Serve as a liaison for students with IEPs, 504 plans, or identified learning differences, ensuring appropriate supports are in place
  • Write PLAAFPs and participate in IEP meetings.
  • Observe classrooms to identify and address student and teacher needs.
  • Provide targeted academic scaffolding for students requiring additional support.
  • Coach teachers on academic and classroom management strategies.
  • Assess student reading, writing, and math levels upon entry.
  • Coordinate testing with College Board (SAT, AP, etc.), including proctor scheduling.
  • Apply for and manage testing accommodations for standardized assessments.
  • Track and assess student progress through benchmark evaluations.
  • Lead articulation meetings to support student transitions.
  • Develop and facilitate faculty and parent workshops on learning differences and academic support.
  • Attend weekly faculty meetings and monthly all-network meetings.
  • Provide direct instructional support or intervention (ex. dyslexia tutoring).
  • Collaborate with Learning Specialists across campuses to align programs and share resources.
  • Perform other duties as assigned by the Head of School.

Who Thrives Here

Educators who:

  • Value relationships as much as academics
  • Enjoy teaching outside traditional models
  • Are flexible, collaborative, and student-centered
  • Want to make a meaningful difference every day

What You'll Need

  • Bachelor's degree (Master's preferred) in Special Education, Education, Psychology, or a related field.
  • 2–3 years of experience as a Learning Specialist (preferred).
  • Experience working with gifted or twice-exceptional (2e) students is a strong plus.
  • Teaching certification (preferred)
