Our Prepsters engage in content through that lens. They learn through experience and talking, listening, writing and reading about the content they are being taught. It will be your responsibility to design and implement unit and lesson plans in collaboration with grade-level or content-level teams that challenge Prepsters and allow for many different types of learning. • Assist in b uilding classroom community by investing Prepsters in academic success and the development of the Foundation Prep FIRST values (Focus, Integrity, Respect, Self-discipline, and Teamwork) .

Emotional literacy is as important to us as academic literacy. We believe, just as students learn differently, they also react differently to any given situation. We don't believe that punitive classroom cultures allow students to learn the skills they need to think critically as individuals. We instead believe that we must teach our Prepsters that each action has a consequence, good and bad, and that it is not the mistakes we make that define our character, but how we respond to those mistakes that defines who we are as a person.

You will be asked to think critically and thoughtfully about student growth and how to continue to drive for academic excellence. • Participate enthusiastically in structured and informal learning and development opportunities . As an experienced teacher, we know that you have accomplished a tremendous amount in crafting your skill. We are extremely excited for you to share all that you have learned about the art and science of teaching with your colleagues.

We believe in the power of relationships. We know our parents by first names, we know their phone numbers by heart, and we love our Prepsters. We are looking for someone who knows that “please” and “thank you” go a long way, that hugs can fix almost anything and that transparency is essential. As a part of the Foundation Prep family, you'll be asked to build relationships, not just with your students, but their families, your colleagues and our many partners in this work.
