Core teachers are assigned to a campus based on availability and preference. Our schools are located in the following counties: Pinellas (Tarpon Springs, Palm Harbor, Clearwater, Largo, Seminole, St. Petersburg, Pinellas Park), Pasco (New Port Richey), and Hillsborough (Tampa).

At Plato Academy, we measure the success of our teachers in a variety of ways: passion, dedication, professionalism, and continuous increases in student performance. We value teachers as Professionals and treat them accordingly. At Plato Academy, teachers do not work off of scripts and they are not micromanaged. Because we recruit and retain highly-qualified personnel, we afford them great autonomy in the classroom, and we encourage them to implement unique instructional methods. To empower staff, Plato Academy provides new and experienced teachers with a wide range of professional development and collegial peer mentoring opportunities.

Plato Academy Schools promote a collegial, collaborative family environment for their students and staff. Our principals have an open-door policy, encouraging proactive feedback from all interested stakeholders, especially teachers. Student performance increases in schools where teacher retention is strong. Thus, Plato Academy strives to make each of its schools a place where educators desire to stay year after year.

We offer a comprehensive benefits package including medical and dental benefits, vacation, and PTO, paid holidays, and much more.
