Position: Operations Specialist

Location: Chestnut TAG, Impact Prep, and Discovery High School (Chestnut Campus)

Start Date: Immediate

Are you looking to be part of a school where teachers and administrators are energized by their work? Are you looking for a principal who is hugely invested in the development, diversification and fulfillment of his teachers and staff? Do you want to be part of a joyful school with a growth mindset about all students' unlimited potential? Do you want to join a team where 80%
or more of the staff reflect the identities of the students? Do you want to be in a school that takes a bold anti-racist stance and explicitly addresses systemic injustices in ways that empower students and staff to make change?

At our three schools (Discovery High School, Chestnut TAG Middle School and Impact Prep Middle School), we explicitly address and counteract systemic racism through our hiring practices, our culturally responsive teaching, and our professional development focused on championing students who have historically been underserved and under-resourced. We believe
that equity lives in teaching rigorous grade-level content and holding students to high expectations. In our schools, equity is not a slogan or a buzz word. It is an ongoing commitment to examining how we can best serve all our students (and our staff).

Make no mistake, this work is challenging. But done right, it is incredibly rewarding. If you are up for the challenge, join our team!
