Middle School Computer Science Teacher - New York, United States - Pharos Academy
Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionCompany DescriptionPharos Academy Charter School is a K-12 urban public education institution that prepares Bronx students for success in college and the innovation economy.
Job Description**This position is for the upcoming 24-25 school year**
Teacher Vision
Pharos Academy Charter School is looking for a teacher who is an "uber" kid person. The ideal candidate absolutely loves to teach, train, and push students both academically as well as behaviorally. There is an understanding that messing up and failure is a natural and welcomed part of the learning process. In this teacher's classroom, all students are treated with dignity at all times and students are taught non-academic skills like hard work, collaboration, kindness, and receiving feedback.
In addition to being a kid person, the ideal candidate has a penchant for planning, preparation, using data, and being pushed to excellence. This teacher understands that what happens before students enter the classroom (intellectual preparation) drives what happens in the classroom and ultimately determines student achievement and success levels.
