The Berkeley School, a progressive, preK-8 independent school in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area committed to civic engagement, seeks a full-time middle school science teacher to join our multicultural, learning-centered community. The successful candidate will join a cohesive, collaborative middle school (MS) faculty team, and will be responsible for designing, reviewing, and implementing science curriculum. They will also facilitate an advisory group of 10-12 students and participate in student life (including clubs, community building, travel, outdoor education, and service learning). We particularly welcome candidates who have experience and/or interest in integrated, multidisciplinary teaching and learning, have areas of expertise and interest beyond science, and embrace opportunities to learn and grow as educators and leaders.

We are committed to principles of equity and inclusion that promote responsive teaching practices and create optimal educational environments for each of our students, and we value the skills, knowledge, and experiences a diverse workforce brings to our school. As we seek to educate the whole child, affirming the cultural histories and identities of all our students, we seek faculty and staff who are knowledgeable and experienced in helping each student grow. If you see this approach as critical to teaching and learning, we urge you to apply.

Please submit a resume along with a letter of interest and two professional references to MaryBeth Ventura, Middle School Division Head, at employment@theberkeleyschool.org.
