Substitue Teacher

About the Role

CWC Substitute Teachers are driven and innovative educators energized by a unique charter school environment, with a deep commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. They implement a high-quality, rigorous, and engaging academic program grounded in constructivism, project-based learning, and multiple intelligences theory. Substitute Teachers in elementary grades are supported by a Teaching Associate who provides behavioral and instructional assistance.

CWC fosters a creative and collaborative environment where teachers grow through ongoing coaching, observation, and feedback cycles while delivering an excellent education.
