Paraprofessional

A free public charter school at the West Valley campus is now accepting applications for a Paraprofessional. Wallace Stegner Academy is a rigorous college preparatory school designed to prepare kids for their future careers as high school students, university students, and beyond. Wallace Stegner Academy (WSA) is a free public charter school that serves students in kindergarten through 8th grade. WSA has no defined enrollment boundaries and will serve students from all income levels, cultural backgrounds, and academic abilities. Wallace Stegner Academy will foster a community of academic rigor and citizenship as evident through its school-wide culture, and civic-based community involvement. Our vision is to create a school that will provide a critical and reliable alternative to mainstream education, especially for English Learners and students who struggle in a typical classroom environment. Furthermore, the majority of the school's student population will read at grade level, deploy academic language proficiently, and demonstrate developmentally proficient skills in Writing and Mathematics. Qualified applicants will have passed the PRAXIS exam or have an associate's degree (or equivalent credits towards a bachelor's degree). Qualified applicants will work under the direction of a certified teacher. Preference may be given to applicants who have previous experience teaching. The candidate must also submit for and pass a background check in accordance with Utah's Department of Public Safety requirements. Wallace Stegner Academy is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
