Position Summary
We have an immediate opening for a paraprofessional/proctor. In this role, you will aid teachers in the day-to-day management of student learning and development. Paraprofessionals help teachers maintain consistency in the online classroom, communicate with students and parents, grade assignments, and more.
You’ll also be called upon, especially in April, to travel the state and proctor standardized tests including but not limited to, SAT, ACT, CMAS, and AASA. This involves mastering the tasks that need to be completed by proctors, engaging with students to ensure attendance, traveling to and from multiple testing locations, setting up equipment and furniture, tearing down equipment, and reporting results.
To be successful, you’ll need to be a hands-on initiative taker. We need a solid communicator who can make suggestions, take constructive feedback with a good attitude and without pushback, and then go out and personally execute with diligence. If you like working with others to make a difference for students, we’re probably a good fit.
