Envision Academy seeks a **Dean of Students **to lead the management of a positive school culture through the use of Restorative practices, culture-building activities, and professional development of staff.
**WHO WE ARE**
Our mission is to transform the lives of students - especially those who will be the first in their family to attend college - by preparing them for success in college, career, and life. Envision Education currently operates four small schools in San Francisco, Oakland, and Hayward, as well as a national educational consulting firm called Envision Learning Partners. Envision Education has made an explicit commitment to becoming an exemplar network of schools with an instructional and cultural vision rooted in an anti-racist and pro-Black framework. The following represents Envision Schools’ vision for 21st-century skills, character traits, and cognitive and social-emotional skills that learners need for success in college, career, and life.

- You are equity-focused. You are unapologetic about your deeply held belief that all children can achieve. You believe that anti-racist and pro-Black practices and frameworks are essential to change the status quo for all students.
- You are collaborative. You make decisions in partnership with others, focused on what is best for the students.
- You are invested in our core values. You hold high expectations for the entire school community. You examine your own biases in your pursuit of equity for all.
