Principal Fellow - New York, United States - Uncommon Schools
Description
Company Descriptionproviding 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 53 schools serving 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 Description
The Uncommon Schools Principal Fellowship was created to strategically identify, develop, and train rising leaders. As we continue to grow and maintain the highest standards for all of our schools, it is critical to prepare our future leaders in an environment immersed in the successful practices of our current schools and the thoughtful leadership of our Principal leaders.
The Principal Fellowship provides a robust development process to prepare leaders to lead a school in conjunction with the Director of Operations. This Principal Fellow and eventual Principal is a full-time employee, hired, supported, and evaluated by the Regional Superintendent of Instruction and the Senior Director of School Support. The fellowship is based on a foundation of core elements aligned to the competencies of Uncommon Principals. Each element is designed to build Principal Fellows' capacity towards becoming effective instructional school leaders:
Feedback and Assessment
Feedback, especially individualized feedback, is the main tool that will support the Principal Fellow's growth as a leader. It is the main reason our schools go from good to great. Principal Fellows will receive feedback formally and informally throughout the year. Informal feedback will be given throughout the Principal Fellow's time in schools, PD, and in cohort gatherings. This will include feedback from the Principal Fellow's Host Principal, Regional Superintendent of Instruction, and the Senior Director of School Support.
School Immersion
By integrating fully in the day-to-day activities of an Uncommon school, Principal Fellows will gain exposure to situations they may face as a school leader and be challenged to manage the complexity of scenarios that occur at a school. Principal Fellows will work with their Host Principal and Senior Executive Director of School Support at the beginning and throughout their Fellowship to plan how they will master the competencies needed to lead a high-performing school. Principal Fellows should be "in the driver's seat" of their learning and should feel empowered to take advantage of all opportunities to build their leadership. The Principal Fellow must seek and plan for opportunities throughout their Fellowship to demonstrate a leadership presence and full school Immersion into the following activities.
Professional Development
All Principal Fellows will join our Principals in monthly, cross-regional professional development. This is an amazing opportunity to learn alongside your Principals and cohort members to learn the most up-to-date best practices and develop your leadership capabilities.
In addition, all 1-year and 2-year Principal Fellows will attend a series of professional development workshops. These sessions will be more intimate and allow for more "at bats", practice, and direct application to your school immersion. In years past, Principal Fellows have found these sessions to be most effective when they are able to immediately practice their learnings in their host school. These cohort sessions will provide opportunities for Principal Fellows to look to one another for professional and personal support.
Qualifications
Our people are what makes us Uncommon. We believe our compensation philosophy and benefits should reflect our values-equity, transparency, and clarity-to enhance our ability to attract and retain talent and reward their expertise. Our staff receive best-in-class training, coaching, and support to develop and operate mission-driven schools that provide a high-quality education to our students and families.
Compensation for this position: Candidates who meet all job description requirements will likely receive an offer of $100,000. The starting pay will depend on various factors including but not limited to relevant professional experience, education, certifications, and tenure with Uncommon Schools. To receive an offer greater than $100,000, candidates will need experience beyond the job description requirements, including time spent in a directly equivalent role.
