Florida Keys Teaching Positions for the 2025-2026 School Year
Job Description
Teach where the world vacations! Enjoy our beautiful community, share your talent, and enable our kids to reach new heights! The Florida Keys is a 100-mile-long string of Islands connected to South Florida by a scenic Overseas Highway. It takes about 2.5 hours to drive from the very top of the keys to the southernmost point. We have 10 district schools and 7 charter schools. Our largest school is Key West High School with 1,319 total students. Monroe County School District is actively accepting applications for the 2025-2026 school year. To ensure a smooth transition, we strongly encourage all applicants to secure housing prior to the summer of 2025. Waiting until the Summer can make finding housing challenging, and we want our new hires to start their journey with us stress-free. Explore our map of school locations and access our new employee resource guide at https://www.applitrack.com/keysschools/onlineapp/. Our superintendent recognizes that affordable housing is our greatest barrier to recruitment. Therefore, we are working on building 150 affordable housing units in Key West. However, these won't be operational for about 5 years. In the meantime, the key to securing housing is starting your search as early as possible. By making job offers as early as March 2025, we hope that this will give teachers ample time to find housing. Explore our website at www.KeysSchools.com to learn more about us . Our Human Resources team will be hosting "Get to Know Monroe" calls on Microsoft Teams beginning in November 2024. These calls are designed to give you a comprehensive overview of our district in the Florida Keys and address any questions you may have. Keep an eye on your email for an invitation to join these informative sessions. "Get to Know Monroe" calls are typically held every Wednesday afternoon from 4:00-5:00 pm EST. Our district boasts the highest teacher salary in the state of Florida, providing competitive compensation for educators. The 2024-2025 Initial Instructional Salary Level Placement Guide (on our career portal) offers compensation information for newly hired teachers. You can expect to earn between $62,100 and $102,300 annually depending on verified years of full-time, certified, K-12 teaching experience. Verification forms will be provided to applicants upon hire or request. Explore our comprehensive 2024 Employee Benefits Guide, with insurance rates conveniently listed on page 11. Choose between the Florida Retirement System Pension Plan or Investment Plan. If you would like assistance in becoming certified to teach in Florida, our Certification Specialist is available to assist you. She can be reached at [email protected] or call (305) 293-1400 x 53480. Due to long processing times at the FL Department of Education (about 3 months), we strongly encourage applicants to start the initial certification process prior to April 2025. Join us in shaping the future of education in the stunning surroundings of the Florida Keys! Apply today and embark on an exciting teaching career with us.
