On-Site ELA Teacher, Game Changers Sports Academy (NV)

What You'll Do

This is not your average teaching role. As an On-Site Teacher with the Game Changers Sports Academy, you will be a full-time core subject teacher fully embedded in a one-of-a-kind Las Vegas academic program built for middle school student-athletes who are balancing serious coursework with elite athletic training. You will be present, visible, and impactful every single day, bringing structure, rigor, and energy to a community that is shaping the next generation of scholar-athletes. You will not just teach content; you will help build the academic culture that makes Game Changers extraordinary.

• Lead full-day, in-person instruction in your assigned core subject area (English/Language Arts), facilitating large-group lessons, individual pull-out sessions, and proctored assessments within a rotating block schedule that balances academics with athletic training.
• Fulfill ALVS virtual course assignments as part of your total instructional load, with the GCSA cohort counting toward—not on top of—the standard ALVS teacher capacity of up to 275 enrollments and/or 15 hours of live instruction per week.
• Harness student performance data to differentiate instruction, monitor academic progress, maintain accurate records, and drive meaningful growth for every student in your cohort.
• Build strong, trust-based relationships with students, families, and program staff through consistent, professional, and responsive communication.
• Show up fully for the Game Changers culture: travel monthly with your student cohort to off-site leadership program sessions, participate in tri-weekly program resets, and model the values that define this community every day.
• Operate as a compliant, professional Edmentum educator on site, meeting all Nevada-specific requirements that protect the students in your care and uphold the integrity of the program.
