Project Learn School seeks a half-time 6-8 middle school English teacher to join a teaching team that offers an integrated multi-disciplinary curriculum.

Project Learn School (PLS) has partnered with local educators at Awbury Arboretum to create the new Junior High Ecology Class. The multi-aged class is an integration of science, art and literature taught by PLS’ Science teacher, Liam Gallagher, and Art teacher, Joan Fox. This idea peaked Liam’s interest, because, “This ecology class allows students to explore the patterns and systems that drive the natural world. Nature just happens to be interdisciplinary.” They meet for 2 hours every Monday afternoon.
