There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self. So you have to begin there, not outside, not on other people. That comes afterwards, when you have worked on your own corner. -- Aldous Huxley

An Opportunity to Teach
Students at School of the Future graduate by portfolio and exhibitions. Portfolios are a collection of the student’s best work and exhibitions are extensively researched papers and oral presentations whereby students demonstrate that they are capable of meeting challenging standards of research: construct and answer an interesting essential question, adhere to conventions of writing, and demonstrate habits of mind (critical thinking skills).
We have very creative and flexible programming, which allows teachers to work in grade teams. Teams usually consist of two Humanities instructors, one Math instructor, one Science instructor and a Foreign Language instructor. Each team is responsible for approximately 100 students and is led by a team leader (a teacher elected from and by the team). As a result of our grade structure, our class size is small--average class size is only 25 students.
Our philosophy is to be nurturing yet academically demanding. We believe that all students have different learning styles, thus our emphasis in creating differentiated lessons to meet student’s needs. In our advisory periods, teachers meet with their advisees to discuss a range of social, political and academic issues. Moreover, we offer a rigorous and challenging college preparatory liberal arts curriculum. Our staff uses a range of alternative diagnostic, formative and summative assessments to inform their daily practice and objectives for individual students.
We are seeking state and New York City certified Department of Education teachers in the following areas:
6th Grade Humanities
