About Parker Academy
Parker Academy is a small, therapeutic special education school located in Concord, New Hampshire, serving middle and high school students. We support students with learning and emotional challenges in a supportive, trauma-informed environment where strong relationships are at the heart of learning. With a focus on creativity, hands-on teaching, and individualized support, we help students grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
Working at Parker means joining a close, dynamic team of highly skilled educators who enjoy coming to work each day. We foster a positive, supportive learning environment where staff build each other up, celebrate successes, and collaborate to make a difference. Our team enjoys quarterly outings and a culture of connection, reflection, and growth.
Why Work at Parker Academy
Working at Parker Academy means being part of a school that truly does things differently — and does them together.
We’re a little quirky — and we like it that way. Our students don’t fit a one-size-fits-all model, and neither do we. We celebrate individuality, creativity, and flexibility. Movement, humor, and hands-on, experiential learning are central to how learning and regulation happen at Parker.
A positive, team-centered culture matters here. We focus on what’s going well, support one another through challenges, and collaborate to problem-solve. There’s no “that’s not my job” mentality — we pitch in and show up for each other.
Administrative support at Parker is real. Good ideas are encouraged and supported. Evan proposed building a greenhouse as part of the horticulture class; staff and students built it together, and it’s now a core part of our gardening program. Gavin wanted to teach students how to ice skate, and now students go to Everett Arena weekly. Jonathan and Brynnalee collaborated on a language, cultural, and culinary course — and Spanish and the Kitchen was born. We trust our educators, value initiative, and believe some of the best learning happens together.
We are skilled professionals who also know how to have fun. Parker educators come to us with at least one certification and a willingness to keep growing. We value professional development, expanding skill sets, and learning together as a team.
Community is at the heart of Parker. Strong relationships with students and families create the positive vibe you feel here. Events like family BBQs, Night of the Arts, Empty Bowls, and Beach Days strengthen those connections and reinforce that Parker is more than just a school.
Those who play together, stay together. Quarterly staff outings and shared experiences help us stay connected and grounded.
Parker loves the Red Sox. We frequently raffle and give away Red Sox tickets to staff — because building culture sometimes means cheering together at Fenway.
You’ll be known, supported, and valued. In a small school, your ideas, strengths, and voice truly matter
