In order to fulfil its mission, WCHS is looking for exceptional teachers. Our teachers play very critical roles in realising the core mission, philosophy, and unique youth-centered approach to the school’s educational design.

This allows the teacher to become a part of the developmental process of their students and allows each family to have a primary contact within the school at all times. Advisors serve students and families by: Taking complete ownership of the academic, behavioral, and overall success of a group of 12-15 students Ensuring advisees are in attendance, punctual, excelling in all their classes, and seeking out appropriate support Creating an advisory period that acts as ‘home base’ for each student Being the academic expert on each advisee Acting as the liaise between the student, the family, and the school teams Teaching the advisory curriculum that has been created for their advisees’ grade Accompanying advisees on educational field trips as determined by the School Leader Contacting their advisee’s families a minimum of seven times a year and responding within 24 hours to all communications from their advisee’s families Developing and overseeing Individual Student Support Plan plans twice a year for each of their advisees Facilitating discipline-related required meetings on behalf of their advisees Performing any other advisor-related duties as requested Ensuring Student Learning Through Data-driven Instruction: Prepare rigorous, student-centered lesson plans that will engage and motivate students to learn Plan standards-based units of study with clear, intended outcomes and goals in mind Provide meaningful feedback on student work to determine student progress and to make suggestions for improvement Proactively and relentlessly seek new ways to promote student learning Create thoughtful, standards-based assessments Work closely with school leaders and colleagues, using data to drive instruction and by extension, consistently raising student achievement and intervening with improvement plans and support for struggling students Have fun and pass the love of learning onto students!
