Core Conversations
Each year, our Owner and Employee Success Manager sit down with each employee for a one-on-one conversation to discuss:
C: their ideas and aspirations for their career
O: feedback and suggestions regarding our operations
R: creating and strengthening their relationships
E: ensuring quality of our environments
This is just one of many “extra” benefits you receive when you choose to join the CORA family.
We strive to live our core values every day in every way. Our core values define how we work together, problem solve, make decisions, teach, and so much more. We want to also help instill these awesome character traits in our children from the very beginning--we teach our core values to our kids and help them understand what they mean.
Our families choose us for our family friendly atmosphere from the moment they walk in our doors and continue to remember us after their little one’s graduate in their little hat and gown. We value the trust, the friendships, and the privilege of being a part of these precious memories. We are all about the experiences created and lasting relationships during these first most important years of the children’s lives.
What does it really mean to be part of the CORA family? It means you are valued; you are appreciated for who you are and you belong. Color Our Rainbow Academy is made up of so many unique children, staff members and families who grow together and support each other. We reach out our hearts and minds to be a part of our community as well. We are all diverse, special individuals and when we come together, we shine as bright and as beautiful as a RAINBOW!
So, what should you expect as a teacher at Color Our Rainbow Academy?
Once you are a member of the team, you will experience a comprehensive training program to help get acclimated to the company and your classroom. This will be a mix of computer-based training as well as plenty of classroom time getting to know your co-workers and children. You will be given time for observations and interactions before you are left in ratio. This will help get you started on the path to success with Color Our Rainbow. You will continue to learn and grow with the support and modeling of your Training and Curriculum Coordinator.
A typical day for one of our lead teachers looks a little like this:
It is true that at the end of the day, you might feel tired-- but your heart will be filled with joy from all that you accomplished. This is what PASSIONATE CUSTOMER FOCUS is all about. Make their day...every day.
Our families that rely on us expect their teachers to not only be a great educator, but also a great resource, communicator, and top-notch caregiver they fully trust. All of this sets us apart from our competitors, in addition to the all-inclusive program offerings and access to cameras in the classroom.
When you apply with Color our Rainbow, you will experience a fun, interactive process to ensure you understand the job as well as our culture.
