    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    Uncommon Schools is a nonprofit network of high-performing, public charter schools providing 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 more than 20,000 students in five cities:

    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.

    Camden Prep currently manages four schools serving students in grade K through 10 (growing to grade 12).

    We believe in strong authentic relationships between teachers and students, supported by effective school systems and an engaging instructional model that enables students to flourish academically and personally.

    Camden Prep is consistently the highest performing of all district or Renaissance schools in Camden, NJ.

    Uncommon High School English Language Arts (ELA) teachers are passionate about literature and building an engaging, rigorous classroom culture focusing on helping all students prepare for college.

    Our teachers become experts in their course content, and have a keen sense of how to motivate and inspire high school students.

    At the heart of our English classes is an emphasis on reading and student-led discourse.

    Teachers use a variety of instructional strategies to prioritize discussion, ignite a passion for literature, and promote strong voice and agency within students.

    At the conclusion of each high school year students are more prepared for the academic rigor and independence of college coursework, as well as for a long term love of literacy.

    You'll teach from a robust literature curriculum shared across our high schools that prioritizes inclusive texts, emphasizes diversity, and prepares students for Advanced Placement (AP), SAT and collegiate level coursework.

    You'll conduct a deep exploration of daily content in order to guide students to analyze books by authors like James Baldwin, Toni Morrison, F.

    books that ignite a passion for literature, sharpen a critical eye for examining the world, and deepen students' intellectual identity.

    You'll develop students' independent and collaborative reading, writing, and discussion skills.

    You'll facilitate student-led discourse, teaching students to use evidence to make sophisticated claims, and to synthesize and evaluate arguments and rhetoric.

    You'll analyze student comprehension and writing regularly and determine how to adapt and write your own lessons to maximize student learning.

    You'll partner with your department and your grade level team on content and instructional strategies that support your students and help all students succeed.

    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.
