As a Classroom Teacher in Caddo Parish Public Schools, you will work under the direction of the principal to administer the classroom in accordance with School Board policies. Your mission is to promote the educational development of each student through instruction, supervision, classroom management, and collaboration. You will be held accountable for the academic growth of your students and for meeting the TAP (Teaching Skills, Knowledge, and Responsibilities) Performance Standards.
The TAP framework evaluates teachers based on 26 indicators across four domains: Instruction, Planning, Environment, and Professionalism. These research-based standards are operationalized against a five-point scale rubric and are aligned with the Louisiana Accountability System. Your daily work will involve creating clearly defined learning outcomes, motivating students through in-depth knowledge of their needs, and utilizing effective questioning and feedback strategies to drive student success.
Beyond the classroom, you will actively contribute to the school community by supervising authorized activities, sponsoring clubs, and collaborating harmoniously with staff, parents, and stakeholders. You are expected to maintain high standards of professional conduct, attend all required meetings and training (including Project Read and ACT 260), and participate in school improvement initiatives.
Candidates for this position must be prepared to adhere to all Caddo Parish School Board policies and state laws regarding attendance, professional dress, and ethical conduct. The role requires tactful collaboration with all school stakeholders and a commitment to continuous professional growth through self-reflection and the implementation of new learning strategies.
Caddo Parish Public Schools is an equal opportunity employer committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive educational environment.
