Job Description:
Job Description Job Description Intrinsic Schools is a charter
network whose mission is to create a revolutionary new school model
that prepares all students for postsecondary success and
world-changing endeavors. We offer a chance to make a unique impact
in urban education by creating an academic model that leverages
great teaching and the precision of technology to personalize
education for each student. At our Belmont campus, we serve
students in grades 7-12. At our downtown campus, we serve students
in grades 9-12. Our student demographics are 90% minority, 86% free
and reduced lunch and 19% students with disabilities. If you have a
passion for teaching in an urban setting and using technology in
the classroom, apply to our unique school. Why Intrinsic We offer a
chance to make a unique impact in urban education by creating an
academic model that leverages great teaching and the precision of
technology to personalize education for each student. Our goal is
to prepare all students for post-secondary success as demonstrated
by high quality student work, growth on assessments and
“noncognitive” factors such as empathy, student independence,
perseverance, and intellectual curiosity. Our team has a unique mix
of charter, private school and deep CPS experience that creates a
broad range of perspectives that ultimately leads to stronger
schools. Finally, we offer a chance to be a part of an elite
national peer group. We collaborate with some of the most
successful and innovative schools across the country as we refine
our model. Our model will be shared across the city, the state and
country! Culture at Intrinsic We believe that a strong student
culture focused on learning and mutual respect between students and
adults is foundational to a strong school. Teachers at Intrinsic
consistently implement a school-wide behavior system designed to
create such a culture. Our Academic Model Our academic model is
unique and creates a very different and exciting place to work. We
provide diverse types of learning experiences such as Socratic
seminars, small group instruction, hands-on labs and collaborative
student projects. Team teaching is core to our model. All math, ELA
and Spanish teachers teach in teams where they plan together and
work with students in larger spaces. Teachers in other subjects are
expected to plan collaboratively and often co-teach to support our
special education and ESL students. We use technology to
personalize learning and to help students make deeper connections
to content. As a result of this structure, teachers are able to
better assess and meet individual student needs. Culture Team The
