Teacher Assistant Program Hide

Teaching assistants are essential members of the Convent & Stuart Hall community. They not only form a special bond with their lead teacher, but also participate in all school activities as full faculty members. Their energy, enthusiasm and new ideas are greatly valued at our schools.

The primary purpose of the Assistant Program is to support our lead teachers and students. In addition, the program provides a learning opportunity for men and women interested in becoming educators.

The teaching assistant program is a one to three year program that familiarizes the assistant with theoretical and practical aspects of classroom teaching. Assistants are assigned to a grade and section each fall and are partnered with a lead teacher who monitors his/her learning and performance. Assistants are placed in grades K - 4.

Under the guidance of the lead teacher and through meetings and workshops designed specifically for our assistants, important skill development includes:

  • building relationships with students
  • observing, assessing and supervising students
  • previewing and selecting curricular materials
  • developing appropriate and successful teaching methods
  • planning and implementing lessons
  • managing students and classrooms
  • conferencing and writing reports
  • job searching and portfolio/resume development

Teaching assistants are expected to attend faculty meetings and periodic pedagogical workshops given on campus. They are also encouraged to take advantage of off campus opportunities for professional growth. Release time and funds are available for approved workshops. A detailed teaching assistant handbook outlines all responsibilities and guidelines. When applying for a position, please ask for a copy to preview these specifics. We begin accepting applications in January for the next academic year. Candidates are invited for an interview in March and April. Hiring is usually completed by April or May.

Yearly contracts for all new assistants begin at the end of August. A new teachers' orientation will be held at this time, in addition to an assistant meeting. All new hires are expected to attend both. Assistants should be available to their lead teachers prior to the start of school to assist with classroom preparations, etc.

Applicant should submit a teaching assistant and employment application forms.
