Job Description

Angelus Academy is a small, faith-filled community of caring educators and supportive parents who are committed to forming the next generation of Catholic faithful through a liberal arts education in the classical tradition. Our small class sizes, unique Salvation History-based curriculum, and dedication to the Catholic liberal arts tradition foster a love of learning, the mastery of skills, and most importantly, a sense of God's love and His plans for each student.

Key Responsibilities:

• Joyfully nurture an atmosphere of Catholic classical education with a spirit of reverence, obedience, and charity throughout the school day with students, faculty, and staff.
• Establish a rapport with students, parents, faculty, staff, and the WAY Chaplain that garners their trust and respect, building consensus and cooperation among the various constituencies of the school.

• Support development and implementation of a Catholic liberal arts curriculum and monitor grading, testing, and communication with parents.
• Maintain the safe storage and integrity of all public and confidential school records.
• Prepare for and conduct periodic program evaluations.
• Serve as a member of the Board of Trustees and represent the Board in its relations with the faculty, staff, students, school families, and the patrons of the community.
• Help plan and schedule the preparation of the annual budget that will permit the setting of the succeeding year's tuition.
• Oversee all school purchasing, banking activities, and payroll.
• Support development efforts by helping to cultivate and solicit major benefactors for the school as needed.
• Ensure compliance with all laws and civil regulations and represent the school in its relations with state and federal agencies and with Diocesan, local, regional, state, and national educational organizations and accrediting agencies.
