M, T, Th, F from 7:30am-3:30pm and Wednesdays from 7:30am-4pm
Prepared by / Date: Resource Team / Feb 2026

Position Summary
Palmetto Christian Academy is seeking a compassionate, faith-filled, and experienced Middle and High School Resource Specialist to support students with diverse learning needs in grades 6– 12. The ideal candidate is passionate about serving students in a Christ-centered environment and is skilled in delivering individualized instruction, collaborating with teachers and parents, and helping students thrive both academically and spiritually.

Rationale

  1. Individualized Support: Some students (with accommodation plans) need targeted help to access the material being taught— resource teachers can reorganize the materials and provide accommodations.
  2. Skill Building: Middle and high school students may still be developing reading, writing, organization, and math skills; a resource teacher provides direct instruction in these areas based on the student’s needs.
  3. Academic Coaching: Executive functioning skills (like planning, time management, and study strategies) often need to be taught explicitly to students with learning disabilities.
  4. Emotional Support: Secondary students often experience frustration, anxiety, or low self-esteem related to their learning challenges. A resource teacher can be a key person for encouragement and problem-solving.
  5. Collaboration: They work with general education teachers to review and possibly reteaclessons and assignments, making sure students with accommodations can succeed alongside their peers.
  6. Transition Planning: In high school, resource teachers can support a guidance counselor to help students prepare for life after graduation — whether it's college, a trade, or employment — by teaching self-advocacy and career skills.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide targeted academic support through individualized or small group instruction, aligned with student learning plans and goals.
  • Identify and assess student learning needs and collaborate on the development of Accommodation Plans.
  • Partner with general education teachers to implement classroom accommodations and inclusive teaching strategies.
  • Track and communicate student progress regularly with teachers, administrators, and families.
  • Participate in parent-teacher conferences, faculty meetings, and ongoing professional development.
  • Support students' spiritual growth by modeling Christian values, integrating faith into teaching, and encouraging Christlike character development.

Qualifications and Requirements

  • Must have a credible profession of faith and testimony, and be actively involved in a local church, as this person will serve as a role model in attitude, speech, and actions for the school community.
  • Must be able to articulate his/her Christian worldview and philosophy of education.
  • Must possess a Bachelor's degree in Special Education or related field.
  • Must be able to implement policies/procedures of the Resource Department and school.
  • Must be proficient with Google Workspace.

  • Must possess knowledge of best practices in differentiated instruction, learning disabilities, and academic interventions.
  • Must possess strong communication and interpersonal skills, with a heart for mentoring adolescents.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master's degree in Special Education or related field.
  • Experience working in Christian education or private school settings.
  • Familiarity with accommodation plans and high school college-readiness support.
  • Training in social-emotional learning, trauma-informed teaching, or behavior intervention strategies.
