Covenant Prep Teachers are a part of- Notre Dame Mission Volunteers-AmeriCorps
Currently we are recruiting teachers for the 2012-2013 school year. Volunteer teachers are the engine of the school and an amazing example for students attending this tuition-free private school. Teachers join Covenant Prep as part of the AmeriCorps program.
Successful candidates will have the opportunity to teach, coach, and guide these deserving students.
Teacher duties include:
- Teach 3-4 class periods per day
- Coach athletics (1 per season)
- Run afternoon activities
- Proctor evening study (2 per week)
- Chaperone fun nights and field trips (2 per month)
The school will provide you with comfortable living arrangements within walking distance of Covenant Prep.
In the teachers' apartment, each teacher will have his or her own bedroom which will be furnished with a bed, bureau, desk, Internet, and a closet.
There will be a TV in the common room, as well as available kitchen facilities and a washer and dryer in the apartment.
Each first year volunteer receives a stipend of $200 on the first day of each month August through June, plus $125 for food. Second year teachers pay doubles to $400 a month. Teachers also receive an AmeriCorps grant of approximately $5,000 at the completion of each year of the program.
Covenant Prep provides funds for a weekly grocery allowance to be used during the week for the teachers while at school. Parents will also rotate bringing in lunch for the faculty. Volunteers are also provided health insurance through the school by UnitedHealthcare. Be a part of changing the direction of young people's lives. While no teaching experience is required, demonstrated academic achievement and selfless motivation are essential.
Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis from October 2010-April 2011 or until all full-time teaching positions have been filled.
