Part-time Student Support Professional

Description The Shrine of St. Anne Catholic School is a K-8 grade school located in the heart of Olde Town, Arvada, CO. We are a close-knit community of families and students that support a nurturing community, reinforced family environment, rigorous academic curriculum and Catholic faith formation. Our Catholic faith is the heart of who we are. Under the patronage of St. Anne, we strive to educate the whole child spiritually, academically, physically, and socially within the loving community that surrounds our school. Students attend weekly mass, practice adoration and reconciliation, pray the rosary, and participate in daily religion or theology classes. We also offer several spiritual retreat opportunities over the course of a student's time at our school. Our school's academic curriculum is set by the Archdiocese of Denver - Office of Catholic Schools. Students in grade Kindergarten through 8th participate in core curriculum in language arts (literature), social studies, science, mathematics, and religion/theology. Additionally, our school offers the following "specials": art, physical education, music/theater, Spanish, and technology. Please see our Academics page for information on our school's accreditation. We are seeking a Part-time Student Support Paraprofessional to work within our team. Our Student Support Paraprofessional provides individualized academic, behavioral, and social-emotional support to an assigned student throughout the school day. Through a caring, faith-filled presence, the paraprofessional fosters the student's growth, dignity, and independence while supporting meaningful participation in the classroom and school community in partnership with teachers and staff.
