As a History Teacher, you will play a critical role in shaping the educational experience of our students and helping them develop a deep understanding of historical events and their impact on society.

Responsibilities
  • Instruction
    • You will facilitate student-led discussions of historical topics, where students grapple with open-ended guiding questions, engage in peer-to-peer debate, and synthesize arguments.
    • You will 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.
    • You will teach an in-house curriculum that prioritizes the diverse histories of Indigenous peoples, African Americans, women, ancient cultures, and the impact all of these groups have had on the development of the United States.
    • You will build an inclusive and safe environment where students are empowered to use their voices to express evidence-based opinions and perspectives.
  • Data Analysis
    • You will meet weekly with your principal and/or instructional coach to analyze and respond to trends in student work samples and assessments.
    • You will learn and implement strategies to differentiate instruction for all learners in your classroom.
  • School Culture
    • You will build positive relationships with students to ensure they feel seen, loved, and heard.
    • You will partner with students' families to ensure appropriate resources are available to support their child's learning needs.
    • You will engage in practice-based professional development, mentorship, and coaching sessions.
    • You will participate in weekly, school-wide meetings to cultivate community, model our core values, and encourage student achievement.
    • You will partner with your grade level team to develop academic goals and practice instructional strategies.
    Qualifications
    • 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.
    • An enthusiasm for collaborating with internal and external partners in the best interest of students.
    • A self-directed learner who solicits and implements feedback to improve outcomes and achieve objectives.
    • Required Experience:
      • 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 (a final undergraduate or graduate cumulative GPA of 3.0 for graduates on or after 9/1/16, or 2.75 if you graduated prior to 9/1/16). All instructional staff are required to become certified in the state of New Jersey within a reasonable period after beginning employment.
