Counselor/Social Worker - Harvey, United States - Jefferson Rise
Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionSalary: 50,000-70,000Salary Range
$50,000-$70,000 per year
School Overview
Founded by seven community members in 2014, Jefferson RISE Charter School will have 740 students in grades 6-12 for the school year. Located in Harvey, Louisiana, we serve a diverse group of students from the Westbank of Jefferson Parish, with a student body that is 52% Black/African American, 30% White, 16% Hispanic, and 2% Asian and where 92% of students qualify as economically disadvantaged.
We believe in educating the whole child, supporting both an academic foundation as well as building students' social-emotional skills and readiness for long-term college and career success. Our model includes:
Since our founding, we have achieved remarkable results with our students. In the school year (the latest year with available data), our 8th graders outperformed both district and state achievement levels in all subject areas, and our high school earned an "A" growth grade from the Louisiana Department of Education. We have also found that students who spend more time at our school are significantly more likely to score proficient or advanced on end-of-year exams.
Position Overview
The Counselor/Social Worker will provide counseling and social work services for students who receive services through their Individualized Educational Program, or IEP. Students who receive services under an IEP have varying exceptionalities (ex: Oppositional Defiance Disorder, Autism, or Intellectual Disability). This position reports to the Director of Special Education and has the opportunity to work with students in both individual and group settings.
As a charter school, Jefferson RISE sets its own academic calendar and daily/weekly schedule based on the needs of its students. Staff generally work from mid-July (beginning with professional development before students arrive) through late May, although prospective candidates should expect to start on July 1st, 2021.
