Webster Elementary School is seeking applicants for a Building Paraprofessional to join their team. The hours may vary as you may be assigned to ride the school bus to support students.
Consider joining a dynamic, collaborative team! We are a 3K-5 building that has Early Childhood, Collaborative 4K and 5K programming. Instruction at Webster Elementary School is focused on Arts Integration. Arts Integration is an approach to teaching, rather than a strategy. Students construct and demonstrate understanding through the Arts. At the end of an Arts Integrated lesson, not only do students have a final product, but they should be able to explain and demonstrate what they've learned. Unique to Webster, all students have music and art class starting in 4K. In addition, students in 2nd-5th grade will have the opportunity to learn either piano or violin. Students engage in a creative process, which is where the majority of the learning occurs. Students are able to build on their knowledge and skills as they progress through grade levels and subject areas.Please contact Maddie Herrmann, Principal, at 920-448-2063 or via email at mmherrmann@gbaps.org.
