Camden, New Jersey, United States Uncommon Schools Full time
Teach History and Social Sciences in a Dynamic Urban Setting

Uncommon Schools is a network of high-performing, public charter schools providing an outstanding K-12 education in historically under-resourced communities. We are committed to building an exceptional team that reflects the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our students.

About the Role

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced History and Social Sciences teacher to join our team at Camden Prep. As a member of our department, you will work in a collaborative environment to push students towards being self-guided learners. Our teachers become experts in their course content and have a keen sense of how to motivate and inspire high school students.

Responsibilities
  • Teach a curriculum that prioritizes analysis of World, US History, American Government, and Economics in preparation for Advanced Placement (AP) and collegiate level coursework.
  • Guide students to understand the author's claim and the power of sourcing while developing the skills of argumentation, corroboration, inquiry, and historiography through primary and secondary source analysis.
  • Work with the History department to determine academic and engagement goals for students.
  • Partner with students' families to ensure appropriate resources are available to support their child's learning needs.
  • Participate in weekly, school-wide meetings to cultivate community, model our core values, and encourage student achievement.
  • Partner with your grade level team to develop academic goals and practice instructional strategies.
Requirements
  • A commitment to the mission of Uncommon Schools and investment in our vision for being an anti-racist organization.
  • A demonstrated commitment to supporting students' social emotional and academic development.
  • A demonstrated interest in impacting K-12 students in urban schools and communities (1-2 years experience preferred).
  • Academic expertise in Education, History, Geography, Political Science, Criminal Justice, Social Sciences, or the Humanities.
  • Prior to the start of employment, you must have a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. Teacher certification is not a prerequisite for consideration at Uncommon Schools in the state of NJ, but you do need to meet NJ state certification eligibility requirements.
What We Offer

We offer competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits that support the personal health, wellness, and finances of our staff and their families. The starting pay will depend on various factors including but not limited to relevant professional experience, education, certifications, and tenure with Uncommon Schools. We also provide extensive, best-in-class training and development, pre-tax flexible spending and health saving accounts, financial planning & wellness, New Jersey Pension program, 529 college savings program, Public Service Loan Forgiveness application assistance, and financial planning tools and assistance.

We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to building an exceptional team that reflects the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our students. We also ensure that individuals with disabilities receive all privileges and benefits associated with employment and are provided reasonable accommodations for the interview process and to perform core job functions.
