The Ewing Marion Kauffman School is a free, public charter school serving more than 1,200 students in 5th through 12th grades. Focused on student achievement and strong character, the school’s mission is summarized in three words: create college graduates. The school serves a student population of which 87% qualify for free and reduced lunch and 90% identify as students of color. Students are accepted by a lottery that prioritizes the six highest-need zip codes within the district. More than 70% of our students identify as first in their families to attend college.The Kauffman School seeks results-driven and culturally responsive educators to join its team – we anchor ourselves around four guiding principles about what it means to be culturally responsive educators and create a school with strong student and staff culture:Belief and Connection: We show belief in every student through setting and holding them to high expectations while building relationships. We build connections and relationships with each student side by side by providing excellent rigorous content in order to value the individual child. We do not allow differences in identity or our personal biases to cause us to lower expectations because we know that when supported, our students can achieve.Clear is Kind:  We show care through direct and clear communication of our high expectations rather than allowing them to ‘slip through the cracks’ by assuming they will know how to meet our standards without telling them. We also know that one of our roles is preparing our children for a world as college students/graduates that might play by different “rules” than they have previously experienced and it is our job to help them understand how to navigate, challenge the norms of, and dismantle that world.Intent and Impact: All of our actions are executed with the purpose and intent to empower every student to reach their full potential. We also believe that as educators, we are called to assess the impact of our actions and adjust course if they are not meeting the intent. Positive intent cannot mean we ignore the impact of actions and we believe continually assessing and reassessing practices to ensure they are effective is a critical reflection process to ensure we are being culturally responsive.Cultural Context + Critical Thinking: We approach rigorous learning as an activity that is responsive to students’ cultural contexts and pushes them to think critically. We seek opportunities for them to engage with and respond to the world around them - both in their immediate lives and in their broader society - while being pushed intellectually at all times.The Kauffman School is currently recruiting teachers for High School grades 9 through 12 in the following content areas: Dual Credit Biology and Special Education.Because we are a growing charter network, our application and interview process identifies candidates who would be great teachers, no matter the content or grade level. Know that your grade-level preferences will be a point of discussion in future conversations and interviews, and we value teachers being flexible in both content and grade preferences.PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES:Curriculum Design, Instruction, and Student AssessmentDevelop and adapt curriculum aligned with state and common core standardsDesign assessments and use data to refine curriculum and inform instructional practicesApproach practice with a sense of urgency, maximizing every minute with studentsCollaborate with content and grade-level teams to promote an environment of critical thinking and academic rigorDifferentiate plans for individual students based on their unique learning profiles so that all students are engaged and challengedDeliver content and instruction to students with purpose, passion, and a willingness to do “whatever it takes” to help students succeedAssumes other responsibilities as assigned by the PrincipalBuilding School CultureUse your own authentic teacher persona to build strong relationships with students and engage students in deep learningBelieve deeply in the mission of the Kauffman School and that all children can meet high academic expectationsDiscuss, celebrate, and reinforce the school’s PREP (Perseverance, Results, Empathy, Passion) valuesWork with a strong grade and building team to uphold consistent behavioral systems and student expectationsBe accountable for student’s mastery of academic standardsEmbrace feedback and constructive criticism in the spirit of constant improvementDemonstrate maturity, humility, professionalism, confidence, and a strong work ethic inside and outside the classroomDESIRED QUALIFICATIONS:Ideal candidates will have experience as a teacher or leader in a top performing charter, district, or independent school.
