Ingenuity Prep prepares students in Ward 8 to succeed in college and beyond as impactful civic leaders. Our innovative instructional model promotes small-group learning for students, collaborative teaching teams, and robust coaching and professional development opportunities for staff.
To ensure success as the **Health and Wellness Coach,** you will report to the Director of Student Wellness. Ingenuity Prep's Health and Wellness Educator is responsible for developing and delivering a comprehensive health/ wellness education program that promotes middle school students' physical, mental, and social well-being.
This role involves designing an age-appropriate curriculum, promoting healthy habits, delivering engaging lessons, and fostering a positive and inclusive environment. The School Health and Wellness Educator collaborates with school staff, parents, and community resources to support students in making informed decisions about their health and developing lifelong healthy habits.
**WHAT WE'RE ABOUT**
- **Mission: We're closing the opportunity gap. **Students and families in Southeast D.C. have too few options for high-quality elementary, middle, and high schools. Ingenuity Prep aspires to right this systemic injustice, providing an exemplary educational option for Southeast D.C.'s students and families.
- **Model: We pair high expectations with high support.** Too often, our students are underestimated. At Ingenuity Prep, an innovative teacher development model, paired with best-in-class training from strong instructional leaders, allows us to grow great teachers who, ultimately, lead _high-expectation_ and _high-support_ classrooms.
- **Results: Our students are defying expectations**. Ingenuity Prep's students outperform their neighborhood peers on rigorous, national, college-track assessments. Already out-performing many of their more privileged peers around the city, in the coming years, Ingenuity Prep's students will provide an expectation-defying and achievement-gap-closing proof point — showing what our kids are capable of when we provide the right opportunities, expectations, and support.
**WHAT YOU'LL DO**

**Curriculum Development & Instruction**
- Develop a dynamic and comprehensive wellness curriculum for kindergarten through eighth-grade students.
- Plan and deliver engaging and interactive lessons on nutrition, physical activity, mental health, substance abuse prevention, and reproductive health.
- Establish and maintain a positive, safe, and inclusive classroom environment by utilizing a variety of teaching methods to accommodate varying learning styles.

- Incorporate fitness components into the wellness curriculum to promote a healthy lifestyle in and outside the classroom.
- Identify students needing additional support and collaborate with school counselors or other professionals to address their needs.
- Facilitate the coordination of resources and activities to support staff wellness and mindfulness initiatives throughout the school year

- Communicate regularly with parents about the wellness program and provide resources for extending wellness practices at home.
- Work closely with teachers, school staff, and parents to address the holistic needs of students
**Health Education Programs**
