Description
Grades: 6 – 12 (primarily 8 – 10 for this position)
Job starts: August 26, 2024
Job Description:
Meridian is seeking a full-time teacher with a strong background in biology and chemistry and an interest in teaching and co-teaching integrated STEM classes. While many educational systems are talking about STEM, there are few opportunities to grow as a teacher across these domains. Meridian is experienced in developing and teaching integrated STEM courses. Candidates should have experience bringing a broad, intellectual perspective to their work and be excited about the opportunity to work with their colleagues to continue to develop our seven-year curriculum. To see a sample of our current course offerings, please visit .
Meridian Academy is an urban, economically diverse, independent secondary school in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston, MA. Class sizes are 16 or fewer students and the school, intentionally small to support a strong and flexible learning community, is growing to its final size of approximately 100 students.
Meridian's curriculum is interdisciplinary and project-based. Student problem-posing is the starting point for problem-solving and long-term original research and learning. Classes are lengthy to support in-depth investigations.
Responsibilities/opportunities include:
