WELCOME TO A

NEW WAY TO WORK IN SCHOOLS

WE LOOK FOR

FOLKS THAT...

  • Thrive in an environment that puts scholars first and set ambitious goals to work alongside them.
  • Are looking to grow professionally in their craft of teaching by receiving and giving consistent feedback. We provide development at every step and for every stage.
  • Want to experience what it truly means to love their job.

Policies Putting People First

Our employment policies ensure that you're put first.

We offer flexible leave policies for family needs. 


  • PTO & Unlimited Flex Time

    We provide a generous PTO package for all staff, but we don't stop there. 

    • We offer "Unlimited Flex Time," which means that if you have something you need to do in less than two hours, you can take that time without impacting your PTO. Doctors appointment? Check!
    • Everything we do is with purpose. Scholars leave at 2:20, and a teacher doesn't need to be in their room to catch up on what they need to do. As long as there isn't anything scheduled, staff can leave at 2:30. 

  • Parental Leave

    For the birth or adoption of a Child or to care for a foster Child:


    Full-time employees who have worked at the School for six consecutive months or more will be given up to twelve (12) weeks (480 hours) of paid Parenting Leave in the case of Primary Caregivers.


    Secondary Caregivers who have worked at the School for six consecutive months or more and up will be given two (2) weeks of paid leave and up to ten (10) weeks (400 hours) of paid Parenting Leave.

Teachers receive a new Macbook, iPad, iPhone, wireless doc cam, external monitor, touchscreen TV, and Apple TV for their classrooms. Scholars have one to one Chromebooks and ipads.

FAQs

Applying to Adelante Schools & The Interview Process

  • What should I expect in the final interview?

    Before the interview, we will send a logistics memo outlining times and who you will be with.


    The interview starts with a question section and then moves into the sample teach. We always end with time for you to ask more about who we are.

  • What is the sample teach?

    Our organization thrives off of feedback in every direction, and it is ingrained in our culture. The Sample Teach is a chance for us to see how you present content and for you to see how we provide feedback. 


    Once you secure a final interview, we will send you information to access our Interview Portal. You will find the Sample Teach lesson plan and other helpful information on it. 

  • Why wasn't I selected to move forward in the interview process?

    Each application is read in its entirety by staff members and closely evaluated for position fit. Applications not meeting the required criteria are not moved forward in the hiring process.

  • How long is the interview process/timeline?

    We aim to move quickly to make the best use of both your and our time. We review applications as they come in and within a few days, you will hear if your application moves forward. From there, a School Leader sets an interview up with you. 


    Zoomed out, we hope to get you scheduled within a week of moving forward in the process and for you to have an answer from us quickly. 

  • Can I reapply for a position?

    We keep your application materials and status on file for a full year.  You can begin reapplying when the next school year application opens.
