Catherine Cook School is accepting applications from experienced, dynamic math teachers to anchor our Middle School team. This is a wonderful opportunity for a creative, skillful teacher with a passion for math to work with well-prepared Middle School students as part of a talented, collaborative Middle School team. Math instruction in our 5th through 8th Grades lays a solid foundation in conceptual mathematical thinking and operational skill, and helps students make the transition into more abstract algebraic thinking.  The math program is continually refreshed by new research and innovative approaches. Qualified applicants should be enthusiastic about connecting with Middle School students as both teacher and advisor. In addition, successful applicants will demonstrate the ability to:

• Design academically challenging, appropriately differentiated math experiences and curricula
• Cultivate a growth mindset in self and students
• Use a wide-range of authentic assessment strategies
• Communicate thoughtfully, respectfully, and clearly with parents
• Contribute to a culture of innovation with high standards for excellence and ethics
• Work competently within a fully supported one-to-one laptop program
• Use technology to expand learning opportunities, create a collaborative learning environment, and communicate with all members of the Catherine Cook community
• Create thoughtful, well-written progress reports
• Chaperone overnight field experiences
• Develop and teach elective courses in areas of interest
• Participate actively in professional growth opportunities
