The Folk Arts-Cultural Treasures Charter School (FACTS) is a K-8 charter school located in the Chinatown area of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. FACTS provides children with an education which has high academic standards, is truly community based, incorporates and respects the lives of students and their families, engages students in understanding their own cultures and communities, and engages students in understanding their role as active participants in working for a just society. Please visit our school's website at www.factschool.org to learn more.

FACTS teachers challenge, inspire, and actively engage students in their own learning process by teaching both for content and for critical thinking. Our teachers work in clusters - - the primary clusters (Kindergarten thru 2nd grades), the intermediate clusters (3rd thru 5th grades) or the middle school clusters (6th thru 8th grades). In general, our teaching teams consist of three specialty teachers (reading, writing or math) who each teach one subject to students in two to three different grades.

We are currently seeking a long-term substitute teacher to teach reading in one of our Intermediate clusters, beginning in October of 2008 through December of 2008. If you are interested, please email a resume and cover letter ASAP and put "Fall 2008 Sub" in the subject line. We look forward to hearing from you!
