“I probably have about 45 spaces between the two [locations],” Borders said. “In my Kings Mountain location there’s probably about 15 students enrolled in the E-Learning classroom, and in my Shelby location there’s about six.”
Higher Learning, which was founded 26 years ago, is also hiring teachers who want to help children thrive emotionally, mentally and physically.
“We’re always looking to expand. We also have opportunities for great people to be a part of our team,” Borders said.
Before Higher Learning teachers are hired, they must undergo a vigorous interviewing, screening and background checks, meet state education requirements and be trained in CPR and first aid.
Higher Learning’s locations are at 1260 Airport Road in Shelby and 104 S. Carpenter St. in Kings Mountain.
Those interested in the E-Learning program can reach the Shelby location at 704-484-9001 and the Kings Mountain location at 704-259-6044.
