Howard Gardner Community Charter School is looking for a dynamic, high-energy Middle School Math & Science Teacher to join our team. At HGCS, we don't just teach subjects; we facilitate experiences. We are looking for an educator who brings an "amazing personality" to the classroom—someone who can command a room with enthusiasm, build authentic relationships with middle schoolers, and turn a standard math lesson into a collaborative project that students actually care about.

Who You Are A Project-Based Pro:

You believe that the best way to learn geometry is by designing a garden and the best way to learn physics is by building a bridge. You are comfortable moving away from the textbook to lead student-driven inquiry. The "Vibe"

Architect:

You have a magnetic personality. You understand that middle school is a pivotal time, and you use your humor, empathy, and energy to create a classroom culture where every student feels seen and excited to participate.

A Restorative Practitioner:

You lean into restorative justice practices rather than punitive discipline. You see "behavior" as communication and focus on building community.

A Lifelong Learner:

You are adaptable, open to feedback, and ready to grow alongside a team of dedicated educators.

Key Responsibilities Design & Deliver PBL:

Develop integrated Math and Science units that meet California State Standards through hands-on, Project-Based Learning (PBL).
