4 weeks ago


Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States Community Partnership School Full time

Position

We seek a Music Teacher beginning August 2024.

School Overview

Founded in 2006, Community Partnership School (CPS) is a Pre-K through 5 th grade independent elementary school located in North Central Philadelphia. CPS works tirelessly toward realizing its ambitious mission: to advance educational equity in close collaboration with families and the wider community by providing a high-quality, identity-affirming education that builds a foundation for lifelong success.

Our approach embraces family engagement and whole-child development – in other words, actively stimulating the intellectual, social-emotional and physical well-being of each of our students in active partnership with their families. CPS begins with Pre-Kindergarten in order to capture early learning benefits for both our students and their families. The School program ends after Fifth Grade, with strong focus on individual fit in the placement of our graduates into middle school. Our investment in the success of our students doesn't end at graduation as we provide on-going graduate support through a comprehensive alumni program. Community demand is approximately ten times the number of spots available each year.

Primary Responsibilities

This position combines part-time Music and Assistant Teacher responsibilities into one full-time position. Essential job functions are explained below:

The Music Teacher will plan and execute a balanced music program that develops in each student an enjoyment for and appreciation of music through a variety of planned experiences including singing, movement, listening, and playing of instruments. The Music Teacher will guide each pupil's growth and development and periodically assess each student's contribution to the performance of the group, regularly communicating with parents and school staff on individual student progress.

The Assistant Teacher will support Lead Teachers in various aspects of their professional responsibilities. A major objective of the Teacher Assistant program is to reduce the student/teacher ratio in the classroom, thus Assistant Teachers gain significant instructional experience, typically preparing for and instructing their own reading groups, assisting with math sections, and/or supporting the Lead Teacher in social studies and science. Specific roles and instructional responsibilities vary according to the Assistant's level of professional development and confidence.

The successful applicant must clearly demonstrate motivation and intellectual curiosity, and enjoy working with eager, agile, and energetic students, ages 4-11. Candidates must also display a strong sense of collegiality, flexibility, openness, and effective communication skills as these qualities are vital for effective work in a collaborative learning community. A love of children, technology proficiency, and a desire to contribute beyond the classroom are also important attributes of a successful candidate.

Knowledge, Skills and Abilities

A bachelor's degree in a relevant field is required. Specific academic preparation in the music education field and/or classroom teaching experience is preferred. As a school deeply committed to principles of democracy and social justice, we are particularly interested in candidates with proven commitment and success working in a diverse, multicultural setting.

The person fulfilling this role is a full member of the faculty reporting directly to the Director of Curriculum and Instruction.
