SY24-25 Behavior Interventionist - Elementary School

About Rocky Mountain Prep

Rocky Mountain Prep is a growing network of innovative public charter schools serving pre-kindergarten through 12th-grade students in the Greater Denver Area. Rocky Mountain Prep (RMP) opened its first school in 2012 with 130 students and has grown to four schools, working with over 1,800 scholars across two districts. Grounded in our culture of rigor and love, our schools consistently outperform local districts academically while ensuring our scholars develop in our PEAK values of perseverance, excellence, adventure, and kindness.  In the school year 2023-2024, we will grow to 12 schools serving over 5,000 students in grades PK-12th. 

Who We Seek:

We seek teachers and staff who are interested in developing students into outstanding human beings in their academic and personal lives by role-modeling our culture of Rigor and Love.  Work collaboratively with their teammates and seek feedback, coaching, and mentorship from their admin team and school community.  Implement our data-driven curriculum with the tools they’ve gained from experience while they adapt to the needs of their students.  

If you are mission-driven, humble in your reflections about your practice, smart in your approach to data, and results-oriented, we’d love to have you apply.

During the 2023-2024 school year, RMP is driving after five big goals:

1. Going Green on the Colorado School Performance Framework
2. 90% Student Persistence
3. 95% Average Daily Attendance
4. Fully Enrolled by October Count
5. Academics:
   1. PreK Students demonstrate one year of growth
   2. Kinder through 2nd Grade Students grow 1.25 years in ELA and Math
   3. 40% of 3rd through 5th-grade students meet their Millionaire Goal (one million words read)
   4. 40% of 6th through 8th grade students meet their millionaire goal (two million words read)
   5. High school: 100% College Acceptance

Each member of the organization plays a part in achieving these goals. School-based staff members will work towards 2 or 3 metrics aligned to their individual roles AND the Big 5. These metrics vary by position and are subject to change for the 2022-2023 school year.   As a Behavioral Interventionist, you will be held accountable for some of these goals.
