About Technology at Brearley

The Technology Department is a small, collaborative team of educators who work closely across all three divisions. Through a progression of integrated and dedicated coursework, students engage deeply with core technology skills, physical computing, and digital ethics, with an emphasis on application over passive use. Two innovation spaces—the Idea Kitchen in the Lower School and the Idea Lab in the Middle/Upper Schools—serve as hubs for creative exploration and iterative design, supporting the department’s experiential approach to learning. By Upper School, students can pursue electives in computer science and statistical computing, with opportunities for advanced study.  Informed by a school-wide framework, we treat computer science as both a technical and intellectual discipline, inviting students to explore how systems work and to reflect on their meaning and consequences.

In 2026-2027, the salary for this half-time position ranges from $37,500 to $78,450 depending on years of full-time teaching experience. Salaries are updated annually in February.
