Job Summary:
Teaching at John Rex Charter School (JRCS) will be unlike teaching in a traditional environment. Our teachers will know the individual strengths and growth areas for each student. We will empower students to own their learning. JRCS 6th grade teachers will deeply understand student data and determine what group and individual supports are needed for their students to move forward on complex authentic projects. This planning requires teachers to consider not only how students are integrating content information into their projects, but also how they are applying cognitive skills (e.g. hypothesizing) that stretch across all content areas and the habits of success (e.g. perseverance) that allow them to prepare for the world beyond the classroom. JRCS 6th grade teachers will be sensitive to the diverse demographics of the community. As a teacher, this will require being culturally responsive and creating equitable learning pathways for all students.
JRCS middle grade teachers use Summit Learning emphasizing personalized, relevant, engaging, and challenging curriculum focused on discovery and inquiry through real-world application. Personal characteristics necessary for the position include: high energy and enthusiasm for quality public charter schools and urban education; organization and initiative; warmth and a good sense of humor; collaborative nature and consensus‐building skills; patience and persistence; and excellent communication skills.
