Virtual School Director, gt.school (Remote) - $200,000/year USD

Crossover, Phoenix, AZ, United States


Many virtual schools prioritize access over academic rigor. They provide online instruction. They do not guarantee measurable growth.

GT School operates on a different model. We work with Gifted & Talented students in grades K–8 through AI‑enhanced curriculum and high‑expectation mentorship. We are now expanding our virtual program to ensure families nationwide can access GT‑caliber acceleration regardless of location. This position is designed to create a virtual school environment that is academically demanding, credible, and demonstrably effective.

You will lead the complete operational framework of the virtual program. This encompasses student journey architecture, advisor performance oversight, cohort‑based interventions, and family confidence building. No established blueprint exists. You will analyze performance data, execute rapid course corrections, participate directly in live sessions as required, and establish the infrastructure that makes 3× learning gains sustainable and scalable.

This is an operational leadership position for someone who thrives on measurable results. Key indicators include retention rates, learning acceleration, parent satisfaction, and tangible student achievements. If you are motivated by independence, operational complexity, and direct accountability, this role offers that mandate.

What You Will Be Doing

Architecting and iterating on the complete virtual student journey to maximize acceleration, healthy competition, and community connection

Conducting weekly analysis of student outcomes, advisor effectiveness, and parent feedback to pinpoint performance gaps and execute rapid improvements

Leading performance oversight of the 3× learning framework, tracking XP progression and creating systems that maintain student momentum

Collaborating with advisors to deliver cohort‑specific interventions and proactive family outreach before concerns intensify

Developing advisor training, calibration, and development systems leveraging session data, performance dashboards, and outcome metrics

What You Won’t Be Doing

Managing a static curriculum with standardized procedures and delayed response times

Relying on others to surface operational or instructional challenges

Prioritizing participation metrics over documented academic progress

Generating reports that fail to result in actionable improvements to student outcomes or advisor effectiveness

Virtual School Director Key Responsibilities Design and manage a scalable virtual school operation that reliably produces 3× learning outcomes, builds lasting parent confidence, and sustains family enrollment through transparent, recognized student achievement.

Basic Requirements

Advanced diagnostic capability leveraging dashboards, recorded sessions, and continuous feedback mechanisms to uncover issues and implement solutions

Proven ability to manage distributed teams with explicit expectations, accountability structures, and execution discipline

Excellent parent engagement skills with evidence of proactive, relationship‑focused communication

Nice‑to‑have Requirements

Track record designing motivational frameworks such as competitions, performance leaderboards, or community traditions that sustain student engagement

Familiarity with next‑generation or AI‑supported instructional models

Experience creating and implementing measurable team development programs including structured onboarding and calibration processes
