TAPAs anti-oppression creative community is enriched by the cultural, religious, racial, ethnic, and linguistic diversity of our neurodiverse families, students, and employees.

Demographically, nearly all members of the TAPA student body are people of color, predominantly Latinx, with many students speaking both English and Spanish in their homes.

A significant portion of TAPAs student body identifies as members of the LGBTQ+ community.

It is an organizational priority for TAPA to hire staff members who have cultural commonalities with our students and families.

The High School Science Instructor teaches five classes, each with approximately 20 students. They will also work directly with a smaller group of High School students to lead an Advisory. It is the hope that an Adviser stays with their advisory throughout the students high school years at TAPA. Advisory provides an opportunity for social-emotional learning and support. The Advisor/Advisee relationship ensures that every student has a school-based advocate and a first-line connection to TAPA. Advisors and Advisees build strong relationships and bridges through empathy. This position is an incredible opportunity to join TAPA's tight-knit teaching corps.

At TAPA, Science is taught utilizing an arts-integrated curriculum aligned with the NGSS Standards. At TAPA, the arts are deeply embedded into the core of interdisciplinary learning.

TAPA prepares students to successfully meet or exceed Rhode Islands graduation requirements and perform at (or above) grade level on all state and local assessments.

TAPA meets each students individual academic needs using assessment data and continuous feedback while providing clear academic, social, and artistic expectations.
