Director of Virtual Programs, gt.school (Remote)

Many virtual schools conflate availability with quality. They provide online instruction. They do not produce results.

GT School operates on a different foundation. We support Gifted & Talented students in grades K–8 using AI-enhanced curriculum and high-expectation mentorship. We are now expanding our virtual program to allow families to access GT-caliber acceleration regardless of location. This position is responsible for creating a virtual school experience that is demanding, credible, and demonstrably better.

You will control the entire operational framework of the virtual program. This encompasses student journey architecture, advisor accountability management, cohort-based interventions, and parent confidence. No established blueprint exists. You will conduct diagnostics, execute rapid corrections, engage directly in live sessions when required, and establish the infrastructure that makes 3× learning gains sustainable.

This is an operator role for someone who values measurable results. The scorecard includes retention rates, acceleration metrics, parent trust levels, and tangible student achievements. If you seek ownership, operational complexity, and unambiguous accountability, this is your opportunity.

What You Will Be Doing

• Architecting and iteratively improving the complete virtual student journey to foster acceleration, competitive drive, and community connection
• Analyzing student outcomes, advisor effectiveness, and parent feedback on a weekly basis to surface problems and deploy rapid corrections
• Managing execution of the 3× learning framework, spotting XP deficits and creating mechanisms to maintain student progression
• Collaborating with advisors to deliver cohort-specific interventions and proactive parent outreach before concerns intensify
• Developing advisor onboarding, alignment, and development infrastructure using session replays, analytics dashboards, and performance indicators

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Managing a static program characterized by unchanging procedures and prolonged decision timelines
• Functioning in passive supervision while relying on others to surface performance problems
• Prioritizing participation metrics over documented academic growth
• Generating reports that fail to result in concrete shifts in student experience or advisor actions
