    ABOUT THE POSITION:

    The UD Team SBYD Assistant Coach will use his/her passion and expertise in sports, health and fitness to change young lives. As a member of UD Team, Assistant Coaches will use the power of sports and physical activity to engage, educate, and energize at-risk youth in Brooklyn. Using an SBYD framework, where life skills are taught in conjunction with sports skills, Assistant Coaches will use sports to help struggling students to re-engage in the academic community.

    ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION:

    Urban Dove Team Charter School (UD Team) is a completely unique and innovative network of alternative sports-based high schools for over-aged, under-credited youth. Our schools combine a rigorous academic curriculum with a hands-on, real-world vocational program, and an award-winning college and career readiness program that strives to give each graduate a high school diploma, a foundation for higher education, and the job skills needed to enter the world of work.

    Some highlights of our program:
    • Students are members of small, single-gender teams that practice together, play together, go to class together, and receive support services together.
    • Students spend significant portions of each day participating and being trained to be a Youth Staff Coach for elementary school students in our after school and recess enhancement programs.
    • Staff are supported, mentored, and heard through a governance structure that values all constituents.
    • UD Team uses restorative practices in response to behavior infractions and focuses heavily on youth development and the social emotional education of our students.

    • Monitoring student transitions in the hallways and throughout the school building and effectively communicating with appropriate staff about student behavior.

    • Conducting aggressive student outreach and ensuring that student attendance is in place and reportable.
    • Providing students with continued support and feedback (both academically and socio-emotionally)
    • Working with parents/guardians to ensure involvement in student's academic career.
    • Keeping accurate documentation of student's progress towards their goals and next steps in the process

    OUR MISSION

    Urban Dove energizes, educates, and empowers young people through our network of UD Team Charter Schools serving over-age/under-credited high school students.
