Why Work for LUMIN Schools

What's it like to work at LUMIN Schools?

Recently, we asked our employees to share their feedback anonymously. Here's what they said:

I feel that education is very important and believe strongly in our mission. LUMIN is a welcoming and supportive employer with a very encouraging growth mindset.

I just love working for LUMIN!!! They are more like family than just co-workers!

feel LUMIN as whole is a great network to be a part of. Always pressing positive issues and words in all we do!

Overall, I am highly satisfied with LUMIN and their model of education. I work with administrators and teachers/assistants who truly love and respect our scholars.

LUMIN schools is a great place to work, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve as a teacher for years to come.

I really feel this school cares about me and wants me to develop as a teacher and leader in the school in future years to come. I really enjoy the network PD's we have because it allows me to talk with others in the same field and see different techniques they're using that I can implement into my teaches.

I know that every day, my work is making a difference. My students have grown so much in the past few months and I am so proud of them. We are like a little family and it brings a smile to my face to know that we created that atmosphere in our classroom, together.

This is just a fabulous place for a new teacher to learn. The level of support from all the staff and the wonderful leaders is amazing. In addition, the focus on our students' entire education, and their all-around wellness, is exactly the kind of education new teachers want to be trained in.

Thank you for hiring me, I feel so blessed and cared for and truly that people want me to grow and be successful

I love the LUMIN NETWORK!!!!! TEAM WORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK!

In addition to our benefits, there are also a ton of other perks you get while working at LUMIN. Here are a few:

Professional Development

At LUMIN, you will receive over 50 hours of network-level professional development (PD), plus in-school PD. LUMIN has also created a Teacher Advancement Plan, allowing you to decide where your career takes you! We've developed a system designed to give teachers pathways to professional growth and fulfillment, whether that path is becoming a Mentor Teacher, an Instructional Coach or a Principal.

The Power of the Network

LUMIN Schools is a collaborative network of seven school campuses with more than 100 educators. That means as a teacher, you have six other colleagues teaching the same grade and curriculum to go to for help and idea-sharing. In addition, our network team makes sure you are completely supported in the classroom with tools such as one-on-one coaching, curriculum training and student interventions.

Vacation Time

Your vacation time is precious, that's why at LUMIN, you get to take the same breaks as our scholars (Fall Break, Winter Break, Spring Break), plus time off around holidays, adding up to 30 extra days for you throughout the school year.
