OPERATIONS & ADMINISTRATIVE CAREERS
Crucial to a high functioning school are committed and knowledgeable individuals working outside of the classroom to support teachers, work in functional areas and manage day-to-day operations. Our administrative team provides the unwavering leadership and operational support needed to run a truly great school.
“The supports provided in our self-contained classroom go beyond what I know from other schools…”
— Ms. Pelton, Special Education Teacher
“Throughout my five years with Great Oaks Legacy, I’ve grown because of the resources that have been provided to me through mentors and leaders and opportunities offered like tuition reimbursement. Being able to grow in one place (and not have to outsource from different places) makes Great Oaks Legacy a great place to be.”
— Ms. Houndode, Third Grade Teacher, Math
“It’s a very family-oriented culture. I found some of my closest teacher friends working here at Great Oaks Legacy Charter School.... it’s a fun environment that allows you to be yourself. I really appreciate that I get to bring my personality to work and I don’t always have to turn it off.”
— Ms. Harper-Davis, ELA Teacher, Grades 7 & 8
"Strong relationships are super important. Making sure students get to college is our job as teachers along with the students’ parents. We work together as a family to make that happen."

This is my 5th year here, but this is my fourth position, and each time I've been growing and leveling up in the position. So I think they really look to your strengths and … guide you for the new position. There's a lot of opportunity for growth.
