Virtual Science Content Coach
Florida, United States · Posted 8 days agoDescription
About the Team
The Virtual Preparatory Academy of Florida is a K–12 tuition-free online public school serving students statewide. At VPA Florida, we provide a safe and nurturing environment where every student has the opportunity to be understood and inspired through a customized learning path that includes live interactive sessions and personalized teacher support.
The Science Content Coach provides content-specific support to teachers in grades 3–10 to ensure consistent implementation of standards-aligned science curriculum and appropriate instructional pacing. This position partners with teachers to monitor standards coverage and mastery, analyze student performance, maintain alignment to pacing guides, and identify standards that require additional instruction, intervention, or reinforcement.
The Science Content Coach serves as a content-area resource to help teachers maintain a clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, what standards have been taught, what standards remain to be addressed, and where adjustments to pacing or instructional priorities may be necessary to support student achievement.
Please note – while this is an online school position and all instruction occurs virtually, travel and face to face attendance will be required several times per year to support in person state testing and student events.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to residents of Florida.

- Help teachers identify prerequisite concepts and skills that may need to be revisited to address learning gaps.
- Support vertical alignment across grades 3–10 to ensure appropriate progression of scientific concepts, knowledge, and practices.
- Assist teachers in balancing required content coverage with opportunities for review, intervention, inquiry, and application of scientific concepts.
- Monitor student performance on classroom, benchmark, diagnostic, and state assessments to evaluate progress toward standards mastery.
- Facilitate content-specific planning and data discussions focused on pacing, standards coverage, and student mastery.
- Identify and recommend curriculum resources, investigations, simulations, and supplemental materials aligned to specific science standards and student needs.
