    About Grace

    Grace Church School is a JK–12, independent school located on two nearby campuses in downtown New York City. An Episcopal school, welcoming children of all faiths and of none, Grace believes in the inherent, precious dignity of every individual and seeks to provide an outstanding education worthy of our common humanity.

    Grace is a school of big ideas, and our structured curriculum promotes academic excellence through a pedagogy of joy: an approach that reflects our belief that joy is the fuel of academic achievement, and that students learn best when motivated by delight, wonder, curiosity, and purpose. We work hard to nurture a culture of dignity and belonging, and we seek to foster in each student skills of intellectual excellence and habits of ethical virtue. Grounded in tradition, the school remains ever open to innovation, looking to the best research on the science of learning and the craft of teaching to advance the timeless values and aspirations of our mission. In the high school division, students are challenged to reach their full potential, ask essential questions, and wrestle with complex ideas, working to solve real-world problems, and participate in the interconnected global community.

    Full-Time Visual Arts Position

    The Visual Arts Department at Grace Church School is looking for a Media and Photography teacher to join their department as the primary teacher of lens-based media for the academic year. The role requires a mastery understanding of contemporary and historical practices in photography, film, and video art as well as an appreciation of how contemporary art practices inform and inspire students practicing with these media. The role of the Media and Photography teacher is also one of collaboration with the other visual arts faculty and faculty community as a whole, including coordinating the display of student work and exhibitions. Beyond teaching students in a classroom setting, the Media and Photography teacher assists students in their learning and visual arts expression through weekly tutorials and after-school work periods.

    Responsibilities:

    • Teach two Introduction to Photography courses per semester. As the head teacher of this class, this position is in charge of curriculum development and classroom maintenance and care.
    • Teach two advanced visual storytelling courses: Advanced Photography and The Moving Image. As the head teacher of this class, this position is in charge of curriculum development and classroom maintenance and care.
    • This position includes assisting in maintaining and caring for the visual arts department labs and facilities.
    • This position is responsible for managing check-out and returns of photographic/av equipment to faculty and students, as well as being available during our tutorial periods to meet and support students with their visual arts projects.
    • As a full-time member of the faculty, this position will also be an advisor in our advisory program, and teach at least one Lab Day course.

    Requirements

    Faculty must be academically prepared and highly effective at teaching and designing curriculum for a rotating block course schedule of three 80-minute periods per six-day cycle, along with a weekly tutorial period for additional individual or small group instruction. Faculty must be adept at using technology for teaching and learning, and supporting students.

    In addition to teaching their core academic classes, all faculty teach in our Lab Studies program, focused on inquiry-driven, project-based, experiential real-world learning. Faculty also serve as advisors in small advisory groups that meet daily. Advisors are responsible for supporting, advising, and mentoring students through their four years of high school, helping them to understand themselves as learners and to lead their fall and spring family conferences, and to contribute to student life and the school community.

    We work in a team-based structure with a high level of communication and collegiality. Active participation in a faculty culture of continuous learning, professional development, and intellectual growth is expected and supported. Opportunities are available to coach, direct, and lead activities in the extracurricular program, in which all students are encouraged to participate.

Our commitment to antiracism, equity, and belonging calls on all faculty members to promote a culture of dignity and belonging for everyone at Grace by recognizing and honoring the unique gifts of its students, families, faculty, and staff. We encourage applications from candidates with broad and diverse backgrounds and from individuals of all races, nationalities, identities, and beliefs.
