ABOUT YOU


The ideal candidate for this job has high expectations for students, is dedicated, passionate, energetic, flexible, and has a growth mindset. Brady teachers adapt instruction to meet students' needs, be it project based, blended, or online learning. Our goal is to prepare students for their future, not our past. Brady teachers solve problems collaboratively with empathy and dignity, and coach students up to the standards we expect graduates to meet consistently. If you have skills reaching far beyond content mastery, you will love working at Brady.

ABOUT THE JOB


The ELA teacher will be expected to implement curriculum for various English classes as well as ensure that all content is available online for students using Schoology. Classroom instruction follows a blended learning design and incorporates project-based learning. The teacher is also required to teach a face-to-face elective four days a week (Monday-Thursday).

We are looking for a teacher who recognizes that:

  • Project-based learning is engaging
  • Communication with students and parents on a regular basis is essential to building relationships
  • Not all students have the same learning styles
  • Blended learning (a mix of face-to-face instruction and online learning) is the wave of the future
  • The primary job of a teacher at Brady High School is to help each student unlock his or her potential through differentiated lesson planning
