Florence, New Jersey, United States Uncommon Schools Full time

Job Summary

We are seeking a highly motivated and dedicated History Educator to join our team at Uncommon Schools. As a History Educator, you will play a critical role in shaping the academic journey of our students, empowering them to become self-guided learners and global citizens.

Responsibilities

  • Instruction
    • You will teach a curriculum that prioritizes analysis of World, US History, American Government, and Economics in preparation for Advanced Placement (AP) and collegiate level coursework.
    • You will facilitate student-led discourse 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 build an inclusive and safe environment where students are empowered to use their voices to express evidence-based opinions and perspectives.
    • You will work with the History department to determine academic and engagement goals for students.
  • 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. Certification is not required to be hired at Uncommon, but you do need to meet NY state certification eligibility requirements. To meet these requirements, you must enroll in a teacher preparation program and maintain a GPA of 2.5 or higher during your employment with us if you do not have a degree in education. Uncommon Schools teachers are required to become certified in the state of New York within a reasonable period after beginning employment.
