Isidore Newman School seeks a passionate, inspiring Middle School science educator for the 2024-2025 academic year. Qualified applicants will hold a degree in science, education, or a related field, with prior teaching experience at the middle school level preferred. Candidates must be skilled in forging strong relationships with students and families, while holding students to the traditional high academic standards characteristic of Newman's program.

Science teachers with expertise in earth science and / or physics-based sciences will be given priority, and a background in computer science and coding is a plus. A student-centered approach to science, with a focus on inquiry-based learning and hands-on experiences is at the heart of the Newman science program, so teachers adept in this type of classroom practice will be a good fit. Prior knowledge of design-thinking methodology is helpful for this role as well. Additional duties and roles within the Middle School, including acting as an advisor, will be elements of this position, so a desire to be an active member of the school community outside the classroom is also critical.

Interested applicants should submit a cover letter, updated resume and names of three professional references.
