Employment

Heartwood Agile Learning Center is an independent micro school in Clarkston, GA for students ages 7 to 18 that combines self-directed learning, project management tools, intentional culture creation, and a mixed-age environment. No 2 days are exactly the same, and the work of facilitating is dynamic in both its possibilities and its demands. Make slime and play soccer? Yes. Study geometry and practice public speaking? Also yes. Clean the kitchen? Support conflict resolution processes? Ask about someone’s library adventure then decorate for a spontaneous dance-party-fashion-show? Yes, yes, and yes. Facilitators consciously support youth in their personal and collective growth, collaborate with families, communicate with each other, and contribute to maintaining the space.

We’re in a transition year and looking for full-time facilitators enthusiastic about self-directed education to join our team and play a key role in growing the school over the next few years! Starting salary $31,000/year with summers and school holidays off. Staff are encouraged to collaborate with community members and the board on budgeting decisions, and we anticipate increasing enrollment through spring of 2025 to enable a pay increase for the 2025-2026 school year.
