Job Posting for 4th- 8th ELA/Social Studies Teacher
Description: San Vicente School is a K-8 school and is a Recognized school located in the heart of Big Bend National Park, Texas. The school serves the employees of the National Park Service, Park Concessions, and the U.S. Border Patrol. The student population averages 22-25 total students. All teachers work with small groups of students.
Position and Qualifications: San Vicente ISD has an opening for multi-grade teacher for 4th- 8th grade for the 2013/2014 school year. These are multi-grade classes and the teacher will work to meet all state requirements. We usually group our students’ 4th and 5th grade, 6th-8th grade. (for 2013/2014 we currently have no 8th grade class) The teacher needs to be extremely comfortable with English Language Arts with some social studies. You need to be comfortable with multiple preparations and individualized planning to meet the student needs.
Teacher must be certified at a minimum for grades 4-8 generalists under the federal requirements of NCLB and hold a valid Texas Teachers Certificate issued by the State Board of Education in Texas. Additional certifications are certainly a plus.

We are busy for the remainder of the year. We do have a couple of items to ask your help on. Through the remainder of the year, it will be hot. We ask that all our children bring and wear a hat for their time outside. Additionally, we have sunscreen that we keep available for any and all children. Our teacher’s try to remember to ask, but, it is ok, for your child to ask for sunscreen as well. During PE, we keep the sunscreen with the water jug out under the ramada. We also keep it in the main office. We try to check daily on the temperature and the UV prior to PE. We do not want any of our children to get burned or over heated during recess or PE!!
Beginning tomorrow, our PE classes will begin having wet Wednesday. Students are encouraged to wear clothing or bring something they can change into that they can get wet in. They will utilize water pistols, sprinklers, and other items that will allow them to get wet on these days. If the weather turns up cool, we will do an alternative activity.
We have state testing next week. All our classes’ grades 3 through 8 will have at least one test to take. We will normally start these around 9:30 in the morning. We allow for the students to have some class then take their morning break prior to sitting down to testing. This has seemed to work well. We know all our students will do extremely well.
Please place on your calendar, the awards assembly that will fall the first Monday in June at 6:00p.m. We always have a short program with the culmination of the program being the 8th grade graduation. Light refreshments are served. We look forward to everyone being there. Please contact us with any questions or concerns.

Parents, please note that we have added the State History Fair competition to our calendar. This competition will be held the first weekend in May, at the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum in Austin. We have two students, Taylor Luttrell-Williams and Eduardo Gonzales that have advanced to the state competition from the regional contest at Sul Ross State University that was held on February 28, 2013. Taylor placed 1st in his category and Eduardo placed 2nd in his category. Kaeli Wylie placed 3rd in her category. We are very proud of these 3 individuals and their hard work for the History Fair. We want to wish our state competitors the best.
Shortly after we come back from Spring Break we will be in the last several weeks before our state assessments are held. Our teachers have worked very hard and our super smart students will do great on these assessments. The first tests will be held April 2 and 3, 2013. Grade 4 will do their writing assessment, Grade 5 and 8 will take the Mathematic and Reading assessments.
Book Fair will be held the week of April 8-11, 2013 at San Vicente I S D. We encourage all of our Big Bend community to participate in the book fair. The book fair will be held in the gym on those 4 days.
As we leave for Spring Break, we want to wish all of you a safe spring break and gently remind all that daylight savings starts this Sunday, March 10, 2013 it is time to spring forward. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns that we need to address. We can be reached at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
