Job Description

Organization Overview

Vertex is a pioneering, first-of-its-kind IB-for-all academy in the heart of the Bronx. Vertex is not just a school: it's a bold reimagining of what education can be.

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.

At Vertex, our scholars 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 can explore, question, and create.

As an authorized International Baccalaureate (IB) World School with a classical core, we offer both a rigorous academic foundation and a transformative character education. 

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.
  • Implement the Data Inquiry Cycle and embody the ACE Habits of Mind.
  • Build caring relationships of respect and rapport with students and staff.
  • 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.

Qualifications

Required

  • Bachelor's degree.
  • A deep, abiding belief in the infinite potential of our students
  • An expansive sense of your own agency
  • A hunger for feedback from all stakeholders and a commitment to continuous improvement
