## Description (the employer's text)

Math Teacher

### History

Williamsburg Charter High School (WCHS) is a high performing, public charter high school located in Brooklyn, New York. WCHS opened in August 2004 as the first Chancellor-authorized charter high school in the City of New York with a ninth grade class of 267 students. Now in its seventeenth year of operation, WCHS has grown to serve approximately 963 students in grades nine through twelve. The school’s mission is to unite youth, families, staff, teachers and the community at large in providing young people with the tools necessary to make sense of the world, and prepare them in their journey to become skilled workers and literate citizens of the world. Young people will accomplish this through their participation in a rigorous and demanding liberal arts education that includes language, literature, writing, science, history, mathematics, the arts, technology, and exploration in disciplines designed to teach fairness, justice, respect and compassion for themselves and others, as well as the skills of critical thinking, communication and research.

Williamsburg Charter High School provides a broad liberal arts academic program to the high-school age youth of north Brooklyn. School programs are individualized to connect to each student’s particular level of development, including English Language Learners and students with Special Education Services. Further, WCHS provides supportive relationships with faculty, extended instructional periods, and opportunities after-school and on Saturdays for additional academic support. Social and emotional support is also available to students to ensure their non-academic needs are addressed. Students are accepted to WCHS through a random lottery with no minimum requirements, tests, or auditions required to gain entrance and, as a public charter school, there is no tuition.

### Position Description

The ideal Williamsburg Charter High School teacher will provide our students with a rigorous instruction. They will be responsible for the following:

Teacher as Advisor

As students transition to high school, one of the things they could lose is the comfort of having a teacher who understands their background, challenges and successes. Research has shown that this relationship is key part of having students feel accounted for and by extension, accountable. In support of our students, our teachers are also Advisors to between 12-15 students for the duration of their high school career. This allows the teacher to become a part of the developmental process of their students and allows each family to have a primary contact within the school at all times. Advisors serve students and families by:

Taking complete ownership of the academic, behavioral and overall success of a group of 12-15 students

Ensuring advisees are in attendance, punctual, excelling in all their classes, and seeking out appropriate support

Creating an advisory period that acts as ‘home base’ for each student

Being the academic expert on each advisee

Acting as the liaise between the student, the family and the school teams

Teaching the advisory curriculum that has been created for their advisees’ grade

Accompanying advisees on educational field trips as determined by the School Leader

Contacting their advisee’s families a minimum of seven times a year and responding within 24 hours to all communications from their advisee’s families

Developing and overseeing Individual Student Support Plan plans twice a year for each of their advisees

Facilitating discipline-related required meetings on behalf of their advisees

Performing any other advisor-related duties as requested

Ensuring Student Learning Through Data-driven Instruction:

Prepare rigorous, student-centered lesson plans that will engage and motivate students to learn

Plan standards-based units of study with clear, intended outcomes and goals in mind

Provide meaningful feedback on student work to determine student progress and to make suggestions for improvement

Proactively and relentlessly seek new ways to promote student learning

Create thoughtful, standards-based assessments

Work closely with school leaders and colleagues, using data to drive instruction and by extension, consistently raising student achievement and intervening with improvement plans and support for struggling students

Have fun and pass the love of learning onto students!

Hold students to high behavioral and academic expectations and support students to succeed
