    Uncommon Pre-K Teachers cultivate a love for learning in every student from the very start. Our teachers and students engage in a learning environment that fosters curiosity, achievement, respect, and empathy (CARE). Our classrooms are engaging, intentional and playful. 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. Our classrooms are led by teaching teams that consist of a lead teacher and apprentice teacher.

    You'll teach literacy (reading comprehension, phonics, language development, vocabulary, and writing), mathematics, core knowledge (science and social studies).
    The teaching team (lead & apprentice teachers) work together to facilitate our free-choice centers and small group instruction.

    Provide early-learning experiences that contribute to children's positive feelings about school, teachers, and their communities (nurturing)
    Support children's development across social-emotional, physical, cognitive, and academic competencies (balanced)
    Apply a variety of strategies to promote both concept and skill development
    Provide modeling and support for children's expressive and receptive language throughout the school day.

    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.

    Academic expertise in early childhood education.
    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 2.75 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.
