About Primavera Online School

Primavera Online School is an accredited, tuition-free public charter school serving students across Arizona for more than 25 years. We specialize in flexible, student-centered online education designed to meet learners where they are—academically, emotionally, and socially.

We believe every student deserves access to an education that adapts to their life, not the other way around. At Primavera, we support diverse learners, empower families, and partner closely with educators to create personalized learning experiences that drive real outcomes. Our work is grounded in care, accountability, and a deep commitment to helping students succeed—both in school and beyond.

As a fully remote organization, we value clear communication, collaboration, and ownership. You’ll find a mission-driven team that takes its responsibility to students seriously while supporting one another as professionals and humans

The Team You Will Join

You’ll be part of the K-5 team, working closely with dedicated elementary school teachers across content areas, academic success coaches, school counselors, instructional coaches and school leadership. This team is responsible for delivering rigorous, standards-aligned science instruction to elementary school learners, building scientific reasoning, inquiry skills, and the critical thinking that prepares every student for high school and beyond.

The team culture is collaborative, fast-paced, and deeply student-centered, and you’ll have opportunities to grow as an educator through ongoing PD, collaborate with passionate colleagues across content areas, and be part of a team that believes every student can thrive—academically, socially, and as a whole person while partnering across Primavera Online School.

The Difference You Will Make

In this role, your work will directly impact students and families by meeting students where they are. At Primavera, success isn’t one-size-fits-all—for one student it might mean finally connecting with science through a real-world application or virtual experiment; for another, it might mean developing the discipline and critical thinking skills to tackle rigorous coursework with confidence.

You’ll help nurture academic growth, build confidence, and support the whole child, contributing to Primavera’s mission in a meaningful and visible way.

A Typical Day Looks Like

While no two days are exactly the same, you can expect to:

• Deliver engaging, standards-aligned science instruction through virtual sessions, small groups, and one-on-one check-ins; adapt pacing and strategies to meet the diverse learning needs of K-5 school students
• Monitor student progress, attendance, academic integrity, and engagement—using data to make informed instructional decisions and provide timely, meaningful feedback
• Develop and implement individualized learning goals, differentiate instruction for diverse learners, and design and grade assessments that measure scientific understanding and prepare students for standardized testing
• Partner with academic student success coaches, school counselors, administrators, instructional coaches and families to support the academic, social-emotional, and behavioral needs of every student
• Use online learning platforms, student information systems, and communication tools to manage instruction, documentation, family outreach, and professional collaboration
• This position requires availability to work core business hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Arizona time, Monday through Friday.
• Must be available to work in person for approximately six weeks each year to support Arizona state testing, including travel to assigned testing locations.
  
  

This role balances structured virtual sessions with responsive, relationship-driven support and is well-suited for someone who enjoys connecting with students at one of the most pivotal stages of their development, sparking curiosity about the world around them, and showing up every day with purpose in a fast-paced virtual environment

Your Expertise Includes

We’re looking for someone who brings:

• Valid Standard Professional Arizona Teaching Certificate with appropriate K-5 endorsement
• Valid IVP Fingerprint Clearance Card
• Teaching experience at the K-5 level in a virtual or in-person setting
• Strong communication, organizational, and relationship-building skills with students, families, and colleagues

Bonus points if you also have:

• Experience using adaptive technology tools, learning management systems, or student information platforms in an instructional setting
• Background in differentiated instruction, science inquiry-based learning, or supporting diverse learners including English Language Learners and students with IEPs

Our Commitment to Inclusion & Belonging

At Primavera Online School, we serve a richly diverse student population—and we believe our team should reflect that same diversity of backgrounds, perspectives, and lived experiences.

We are committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful workplace where all team members feel valued, supported, and empowered to contribute their best work. Diverse ideas strengthen our school, improve outcomes for students, and help us better serve the families and communities who rely on us.

All qualified individuals are encouraged to apply, and we strive to create an environment where everyone feels a true sense of belonging and purpose.

How We’ll Take Care of You

We believe that supporting our team members is essential to supporting our students. At Primavera, care, balance, and well-being are part of how we operate—not extras.

Our commitment to you includes:

• A competitive total compensation package, including medical, dental, vision, and voluntary benefits
• Well-being support that fits real life—from virtual wellness programs and wellness coaching to flexible work options for select roles
• Generous PTO options, including unlimited PTO for exempt roles and “life happens” days when flexibility is needed
• A fully paid holiday week off at Christmas to rest, reset, and recharge
• Recognition and rewards that celebrate birthdays, meaningful milestones, and the important work you do for students and families
• Quarterly Town Halls to keep communication transparent, aligned, and human
• Annual events and traditions that help us stay connected as a remote school community
  
  

We’re intentional about creating a workplace where people feel supported, respected, and proud of the impact they make—every day.
