Welcome to Miaplaza!
Our vision is to elevate online learning by applying the most successful approaches in virtual education to create an accessible and inclusive homeschool curriculum platform where all students can be successful! MiaPrep Online High School (MOHS) is our private online high school for students grades 7-12. Formed in 2022 and accredited in 2023, we’ve grown from 80 students our first year to over 530 in 2025! Miaplaza’s leadership aims to continue this high-growth trajectory, with a goal of serving 10,000+ students in the next 5-10 years! 🚀
We’re seeking a passionate and resourceful High School Social Studies Teacher who will also serve as an Academic Advisor to a caseload of approximately 30 students. This is a fully remote, asynchronous teaching role that emphasizes student support, feedback, and mentorship rather than live instruction.
