Job Description

Organization Overview

 

Vertex Partnership Academies  is a public charter  International Baccalaureate World High School  with a  classical core in the heart of the Bronx. 

Our mission is to provide students with  pathways for upward mobility while preparing them for the responsibilities of  self-governance in a democratic republic . Everything we do is rooted in the  four cardinal virtues : courage, justice, temperance, and wisdom. 

Our  Lower Academy curriculum is designed to teach  timeless truths  in pursuit of the  good , the  true , and the  beautiful . All students train in the seven classical liberal arts of the Trivium and Quadrivium, with explicit instruction and practice of logic, grammar, and rhetoric, choose between Spanish and Latin, and trace the development of the Western Tradition.

Our  Upper Academy provides students with rich options equal in rigor and stature: a Humanities-focused pathway with AP courses, or three different International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme pathways: Biomedical Science, Computer Science and Cybersecurity, and Montessori Early Childhood Education, all of which have real-world partners and result in an industry credential.

At Vertex, our students have  agency . Each day, they make choices about the kind of people they want to become, the lives they want to lead, and the society they want to build. It’s our sacred duty to equip them with the knowledge most worth having, to sharpen their critical thinking, and to create a space where they grapple with diverse viewpoints, express cogent arguments, and engage in democratic discourse.

Responsibilities

  • Craft and execute lessons that give students the knowledge most worth having and build transferable skills and conceptual understandings. 
  • Implement our academy-wide pastoral systems with fidelity.

  • Ensure all assessments support ongoing learning and provide timely, relevant, and appropriate feedback to students.
  • Contribute positively to the collaborative culture of the academic team and Vertex staff.
  • Enthusiastically participate and contribute thoughtfully in professional development.
  • Participate in community-based projects and school field trips.
  • Proactively communicate with families about student learning.
  • Supervise students’ individual Personal Projects, Extended Essays, and service requirements.
  • Lead an advisory group of students.
