Classroom Teacher (2Nd-5Th)

About the Employer

Pleasant Grove School is a special place to learn! We have a rich history, traditional values, and progressive practices.

As a learning community, we ardently believe failure is not an option and support our beliefs by putting effective practices into place. We have an enrollment of about 160 TK-8th grade students and are the only school in the Pleasant Grove School District. The school located about 20 minutes from Natomas, Roseville, and Yuba City began serving students of the rural farming communities of South Sutter County in the mid 1800's.

We enjoy the many benefits of being a central part of a close knit, multigenerational farming community. Although we have strong roots in the past, we are a forward thinking, high quality school. Pleasant Grove students and staff all work hard and expect a lot of each other.

We provide a unique educational experience, and everyone performs their best, no matter what their role. Our student body is comprised of about 70% inter-district transfer students who come to us by choice due to our reputation for achievement and behavioral expectations.

We value strong, fundamental, standards-based education while employing innovative, engaging teaching techniques to meet the variety of learning needs and styles we encounter.

Our vision is one of excellence in action and continuous learning, for all of us! We are not a complacent community of learners: everyone from community members to Board of Trustees to our custodians and bus drivers are integral to our success.

We have partnerships with community groups such as 4-H, Kiwanis Club, and the local fire department who provide services for our students.

Our parents are very supportive of and involved in our school as Parents Club members and classroom volunteers. There is a special feel to Pleasant Grove School, and visitors readily comment about it. Middle school students care for and mentor younger students; students regularly spend recess voluntarily picking up trash or pulling weeds from a flower bed; older students work in the cafeteria.

Pleasant Grove School belongs to them - regardless of whether they are inter-district or whether their family has attended for several generations. Pleasant Grove School is a unique place; traditional, yet progressive. We love what we do, and it shows through our students.

We look forward to expanding our vision to many more generations.
