Hello,

More information can be found at http://thurgoodmarshallacademy.org/about/employment-opportunities/ Candidates should send a resume to teach@tmapchs.org with the subject “Math” or “Science” Teacher.

 

About Thurgood Marshall Academy

Thurgood Marshall Academy grew out of the experience of law students and professors in the DC Street Law clinical program at Georgetown University Law Center who witnessed how limited opportunities stunted the academic and social development of students in Ward 8. They also saw an opportunity to use legal principles as teaching tools to educate and empower the students that they encountered.

 

Now in its 15th year of operation, Thurgood Marshall Academy is among the top performing, open-enrollment high school in the District of Columbia: student test scores are consistently three to four times higher than those of students in surrounding public high schools; SAT scores surpass those of students in the District of Columbia by over 60 points; and AP passing rates double those of other high schools in the District. The school is a Tier 1 school.

 

Teacher Candidates

Applicants should be passionate, energetic, and dedicated to working with under-served youth. Candidates should have relentless commitment to educating and engaging our students in their academic pursuits. Candidates must hold at least a B.A/B.S in a related field (Science: physics, chemistry, biology, ecology, environmental science, astronomy, etc; Math: applied mathematics, statistics, economics, etc.); candidates with prior teaching experience and/or certification are strongly encouraged to apply.

 

Thurgood Marshall Academy encourages applications from people with diverse backgrounds. Thurgood Marshall Academy is an equal opportunity employer.

 

Thurgood Marshall Academy’s Faculty Pay Scale  matches the District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS).
