    Description

    Elementary Teacher
    New York, NY, USA
    Full-time
    RY 24-25

    Job Description
    Uncommon Elementary School Teachers cultivate a love for learning in every student from the very start. Our teachers and students engage in a culturally-responsive, fast-paced, and fun learning environment. We have built a community where teachers encourage our core values of respect and hard work while celebrating the uniqueness of each student and laying the academic foundations that carry students to and through college.

    Responsibilities

    1. Instruction

    You'll co-teach and build an engaging and joyful classroom environment that encourages mastery and empowers students to engage in academic discourse.
    You'll teach the basic principles of mathematics.
    You'll teach reading and writing to build students' literacy skills: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
    You'll teach an ELA curriculum that prioritizes meaningful texts and topics that are interesting and relevant.
    You'll teach a Science curriculum that prioritizes knowledge of geology, astronomy, ecology, and cycles in nature to ensure students understand climate change and how to take care of the Earth.
    You'll teach a Social Studies curriculum that incorporates analyses of America's diverse histories, with an emphasis on cultural and civic awareness.
    2. Data Analysis

    You'll meet weekly with your principal and/or instructional coach to analyze and respond to trends in student work samples and assessments.
    You'll learn and implement strategies to differentiate instruction for all learners in your classroom.
    3. School Culture

    You'll build positive relationships with students to ensure they feel seen, loved, and heard.
    You'll partner with students' families to ensure appropriate resources are available to support their children's learning needs.
    You'll engage in practice-based professional development, mentorship, and coaching sessions.
    You'll support morning arrival, lunch duty, student assemblies, class transitions, and after-school dismissal.
    You'll participate in weekly, school-wide meetings to foster community, model our core values, and encourage student achievement.
    You'll partner with your grade level team to develop academic goals and practice instructional strategies.
    Qualifications
    A commitment to the mission of Uncommon Schools and investment in our vision for being an anti-racist organization
    A demonstrated commitment to supporting students' social emotional and academic development
    An enthusiasm for working with families in the best interest of students
    A self-directed learner who solicits and implements feedback to improve outcomes and achieve objectives
    Required Experience:
    A demonstrated interest in impacting K-12 students in urban schools and communities (1-2 years experience preferred).
    Academic expertise in Elementary Education, Humanities, English, Social Sciences, or other related fields of study.
    Prior to the start of employment, you must have a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. Certification is not required to be hired at Uncommon, but you do need to meet NY state certification eligibility requirements. To meet these requirements, you must enroll in a teacher preparation program and maintain a GPA of 2.5 or higher during your employment with us if you do not have a degree in education. Uncommon Schools teachers are required to become certified in the state of New York within a reasonable period after beginning employment.
    Additional Information
    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: The starting compensation for this role based in New York City for school year is between $64,000 to $96,900 and the starting compensation for school year is between $65,000 to $97,900. The starting pay will depend on various factors that may include but are not limited to professional experience, education, training, certifications, tenure with Uncommon Schools, and work location. Because one of the things that we value is staff tenure in a role, we do not currently cap salary ranges. Please note: ranges may differ for staff who work from a location other than New York.
