About the Position (*Pay structure for the role is salary + stipend)*

This is a role that combines teaching and leadership. We are looking for a Math Coordinator/4th-5th Grade Math/Science Teacher who brings deep craft and deep care to the same classroom. As our Math and Science teacher for 4th and 5th grade, you will shape how our oldest scholars understand the world and themselves.

To support the full scope of this role, the Math Coordinator carries a reduced teaching load, creating protected time for data analysis, curriculum coordination, scholar pull-out support, and academic team responsibilities.

The right candidate brings a researcher's mind, a builder's hands, a positive spirit, and a relationship-first approach. You understand that for boys in Wards 7 and 8 and PG County, a great math teacher is also a great mentor, and you don't see those as separate things.

  • Create a classroom culture that is joyful, affirming, and high-expectation.
  • Monitor student progress with rigor; provide regular, actionable feedback to scholars and families that centers growth.
  • Collaborate with colleagues on interdisciplinary units and school-wide initiatives rooted in holistic scholar development.
  • Build strong, trusting relationships with students, families, colleagues, and community members.
  • Participate actively in professional development and ongoing learning.

What you bring:

  • Bachelor's degree in Education or related field with elementary math and science methods coursework, plus teaching certification; OR a Master's degree in a related field.
  • A minimum of 4 years of lead classroom teaching experience in an urban elementary school setting.
  • Deep, demonstrated knowledge of culturally relevant and responsive teaching practices.

What Sets You Apart:

  • You believe, without reservation, in the brilliance and potential of Black and Brown boys.
  • You bring warmth and structure in equal measure.
