Job Description

Join Lakes Country Academy (LCA), a Level IV setting in beautiful, lake-filled west-central Minnesota, as a Special Education Teacher supporting students referred by their resident school districts.

LCA offers smaller caseloads and staff-to-student ratios than a typical district setting, shorter student days that build in daily time for paperwork, prep, and team collaboration, and a trauma-informed, relationship-based model that blends academics with functional life skills, employability training, and social-emotional learning.

Your Role Will Include:

  • Provide specialized instruction to K-12 students with emotional/behavioral disorders (EBD) in a Level IV setting.
  • Collaborate with a full support team: paraprofessionals, behavior specialists (BCBA/RBT), a school psychologist, and a school social worker.
  • Deliver holistic, trauma-sensitive programming blending academics, functional life skills, and employability training.
  • Manage IEP compliance and progress monitoring for assigned caseload.

Qualifications:

  • Licensed Minnesota Special Education Teacher (Tier 3 or 4) in Emotional Behavior Disorders (EBD) preferred.
  • Tier 1 or 2 licensure, or Out-of-Field Permission.
  • Experience working with K-12 students with behavioral challenges preferred.
  • Passion for collaborative, student-centered instruction.

Salary and Benefits:

  • Salary: $55,998–$86,871, based on license and experience.
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Life and long-term disability insurance.
  • 403(b) and TRA retirement contributions.
  • Generous sick leave.
  • Strong administrative and behavioral team support.

Location & Shift Times:

  • Fergus Falls Lakes Country Academy.
  • Start time: 8:00am.
  • Shift type: Full-time (school-year schedule).
  • For the 2026-2027 school year; school start date: September 1, 2026.
