Afterschool Lead Teacher

LOCATION: Hoover Kids' Club About Us It is PACCC's honorable mission to serve as many families as possible and help to build the future of our community through its most precious asset - the children. Since 1974, PACCC has pursued its non-profit mission of providing exceptional education and care for Palo Alto's children, regardless of a family's financial circumstances, with unwavering determination. In alignment with our long-standing partners, the City of Palo Alto, Palo Alto Unified School District, California Department of Social Services and California Department of Education, PACCC is committed to serving the current and future needs of Palo Alto's families, and actively works to eliminate barriers. Over one-third of enrollment spots are designated for financial assistance through our long-standing partners and PACCC's own fundraising efforts. Looking for Devoted Teachers and Child Development Experts Our staff devote their professional lives to this field because they are motivated to do more than just take good care of children; they are in this for the love of children. We have established developmentally, culturally, and linguistically appropriate and effective teaching approaches that enhance each child's learning and development in the context of the curriculum goals. Our teachers recognize differences, such as learning styles, needs, capacities, interests and cultural backgrounds, and use instructional and nurturing approaches that are appropriate for each child, as well as collectively as a group. PACCC hires teachers with the educational qualifications, knowledge, and professional commitment necessary to promote children's learning and development, and to support families' diverse needs and interests. PACCC also provides ongoing professional development and trainings for staff to enhance their skill set, approaches and the curriculum within our programs.
