Job Title: Middle School ELA Teacher

Uncommon Schools is a nonprofit network of high-performing, public charter schools providing an outstanding K-12 education in historically under-resourced communities. We have proudly built schools that reflect our student population, with more than 60% of our teachers and staff across our network identifying as a person of color. Uncommon currently manages 52 schools serving more than 19,000 students in five cities: Boston, Camden, New York City, Newark, and Rochester. We are proud that Uncommon graduates persist in and graduate from college at five times the rate of their peers nationally. We achieve this by offering strong academic, co-curricular, and social-emotional learning that prepares students for success in college and beyond.

Job Responsibilities

As a Middle School ELA Teacher, you will be responsible for teaching an inclusive, culturally responsive curriculum that seeks equitable outcomes for all students. You will guide students to analyze literary and non-narrative texts, assess an author's purpose, write in a variety of genres, and grapple with meaningful questions in student-led discourse. You will create an inclusive and safe environment, allying with students to speak and write in their authentic voice. You will also guide students to choose books of interest independently, as they develop their own passions and interests as readers.

The ideal candidate will have a demonstrated interest in impacting K-12 students in urban schools and communities, academic expertise in Humanities, English, Social Sciences, or other related fields of study, and a commitment to supporting students' social emotional and academic development. The candidate will also have a self-directed learning style, soliciting and implementing feedback to improve outcomes and achieve objectives.
