Job description
Long-Term Sub for Middle School Math Teacher
San Francisco Friends School seeks an experienced Interim Middle School math teacher who is compelled by the school’s mission and committed to progressive math education to serve as an interim teacher for 7th-Grade Math, beginning November 2025 to June 2026 Academic Year.
Mathematics at Friends is an inquiry-based, conceptual, hands-on program where students grapple with problems and make meaning of the mathematics for themselves. We strive to build the capacity in students to think mathematically, solve problems with confidence, and love mathematics.
Teachers are engaged in regular collaboration, curriculum development, and pedagogical reflection to offer the most meaningful, responsive, and student-centered program possible.
Teachers work in cross-disciplinary teams to develop and implement curricula aimed at examining relevant contemporary topics in their full complexity. In addition to discipline-specific classes, teaching teams also work together to design and lead a block dedicated to interdisciplinary studies. Timely communication, patience, humility, willingness to listen, and the ability to problem-solve with peers are at the core of this work.
Candidates should have a strong math background and be invested in collaborating with colleagues and working closely with students. Experience as an instructional leader or curriculum designer is also highly desired for the next instructor. While the curriculum goals and lessons for the remainder of the year will already be established, the interim teacher will review and prepare thoroughly for all daily lessons and will be ready to make any necessary curricular adjustments in the second semester.
