NOW HIRING: BUS DRIVERS & PRESCHOOL MONITORS!
Full-Time & Part-Time Opportunities

We are looking for dedicated individuals to join our Transportation Team as full-time and part-time bus drivers, as well as part-time preschool monitors. Bus drivers work from 5:45 AM–9:00 AM and 2:00 PM–5:00 PM, enjoy being off whenever students are off, and receive year-round pay. No CDL is required—paid training is provided—and drivers have the opportunity to take field trips, including with their own children. Full-time positions are eligible for benefits. Our preschool monitor roles are perfect for anyone who loves working with young children and wants a rewarding, part-time schedule. They work 7:10-8:40 & 3:30-5:00, Monday through Thursday!

This is an ideal opportunity for a parent searching for a role that fits their child’s schedule, a retiree looking for something extra, or anyone who wants to give back to the community in a meaningful way.

🎉 Tech Teacher for the Day: Gabe Austin! 🎉 Today we had the absolute best guest take over the Technology Classroom—Gabe Austin, who earned this experience by purchasing Tech Teacher for the Day at our Fall Festival Auction! And let us tell you… he did not disappoint! 💻✨ Gabe jumped right in by preparing computers for our classes and making sure everything was ready for students to learn. He passed out Clever badges like a pro, helped fix tech problems around the room, and kept everything running smoothly! But he didn’t stop there… 🎬 He created his very own stop-motion video, and then turned around and taught another group of students how to make one too—what a leader! 🎄 To top it all off, he added his creative touch by decorating the Technology Classroom Christmas Tree. It looks amazing! We are so proud of Gabe and the hard work, leadership, and creativity he showed today. 💙 Way to go, Tech Teacher Austin! 🚀💻✨
