Job Description

Job description:

Pacific Northern Academy is a private school located in South Anchorage. We are a Preschool – 8th grade school with around 140 students. We’re a supportive team that works closely together to provide an outstanding school experience, and our teachers play a vital role in supporting the school’s success. We work together as a team to ensure all students’ safety and social-emotional and academic development. We are looking for a highly qualified Early Years Teacher to work in our Preschool/Kindergarten division. The ideal candidate will have experience in Early Childhood Education or Elementary Education and a strong commitment to fostering a positive environment for young learners.

The duties of the Early Years Teacher are as follows:

  • Implementing PNA’s developmentally appropriate curriculum
  • Assisting the specialist teachers as needed (Spanish, Art, Music, PE)
  • Supporting the social and emotional development of the children
  • Helping children build independence with social interactions and academic tasks

Essential job functions include communication and organizational skills along with the physical abilities to bend, kneel, lift, and carry up to 40 lbs as necessary to meet the needs of young children. The work environment is typical of a school environment. However, this position involves daily exposure to weather elements. Candidates must possess adequate vision, hearing acuity, physical ability, strength, and stamina to perform the required responsibilities and activities associated with supervision and program delivery.
