American Heritage Schools, the top-ranked PK-3 through 12 college preparatory school, invites educators from throughout the country to its virtual “Continuing Education Webinar and Job Fair” on Wednesday, Dec. 15 at 7:00 p.m. From the convenience of their homes, attendees will learn about job opportunities available at the schools’ Broward Campus and Palm Beach Campus and earn 1.5 hours of continuing education credit by attending a keynote address given by nationally recognized science teacher, Casey Bethel.
American Heritage Schools is one of the top four largest private schools in the nation, and among the top 20 largest employers in South Florida. It is headed by educators rather than a board of directors, and maintains subsidiary departments in-house, such as Admissions, Human Resources, Curriculum Development, and PR/Marketing. The Schools also offer free tuition for employees’ children and salary supplementation for additional roles, including tutoring during the year and teaching at the Summer Institute over the summer.
The topic of Bethel’s webinar is “Teaching with Growth Mindset: Steps to Success.” Bethel is an experienced AP Physics, AP Biology and Physical Science teacher from New Manchester High in Douglasville, Georgia. He is currently the Science and STEM Director for the district while also teaching part-time. He is a powerful and engaging motivational speaker who is sought after by schools, school systems, and civic organizations all across the country. Bethel was Georgia Teacher of the Year in 2017 and has inspired educators across the nation through his many keynote addresses and appearances at conferences and schools, including Teach Your Heart Out, ASCD Empower conferences, and the National Network of State Teachers of the Year.
“We are always seeking qualified educators who are passionate and motivated to work with the best and brightest students in the nation,” said Dr. Douglas Laurie, president of American Heritage Schools. “Our ‘Continuing Education Webinar and Job Fair’ will give job-seekers the chance to discover who we are and the current positions we have available, while at the same time get empowered and gain knowledge about new trends in teaching from an inspirational speaker and nationally renowned educator, Casey Bethel.”
