Full Job Description

At DPAC High School, we will strive for and achieve excellence. We will follow through on the promise we've made to our community to become an academic powerhouse on the historic westside of Las Vegas. We will achieve a 5-star rating according to the state of Nevada. To do so, our high school will engage in turnaround work. Our turnaround educators will show deep respect for our students' capabilities and will embrace teaching at grade-level rigor while planning their lessons strategically to set students up for success. Our educators will show a deep commitment to supporting our young people, including through strong partnership with our families, regular advising, and consistent family communication to ensure strong attendance and academic performance. We will also have a laser focus on providing top-notch ACT Prep services, and will expand dual enrollment opportunities so that our HS students get a leg up and earn college credit before they graduate from HS.

About the Opportunity

Democracy Prep at the Agassi Campus (DPAC) is a college prep institution whose mission is to educate responsible citizen-scholars for success in the college of their choice and a life of active citizenship. Core to achieving this is supporting our scholars through the college application process. Working with our scholars, families, and school teams, the College Counselor will ensure a systematic, proactive, and efficient college research and application process. The College Counselor works with scholars from the beginning of their junior year to the finalization of the college matriculation process at the end of 12th grade, ensuring 100% of seniors apply and are accepted to the best-fit four-year college. The counselor will also support students who plan to pursue non-college post-secondary pathways including civil service, military, internships and career training. Ultimately the College Counselor will ensure that 100% of students will have a strong post-secondary plan.

The college counselor works with students in both individual advising and in classroom settings. Therefore this opportunity is best suited for a counselor who is adept at working in both settings and implementing a comprehensive post-secondary planning curriculum. Compelling candidates will demonstrate skill in cultivating a classroom culture characterized by high expectations and strong student performance.

A capable networker who can cultivate relationships with organizations that can provide opportunities to students.
A strong interest and skill in teaching, project based learning, and discussion-based activities.
A graduate of a Bachelor's degree program (required), and a MSW or MSEd in School Counseling (preferred).
