KIPP Jacksonville Public Schools seeks an instructor for our middle school math lab. This teacher focuses on supporting students as an extra layer of support beyond their core mathematics instruction.

The teacher’s role is to pull groups of students, track academic progress, and ensure students are accessing the blended learning pieces that support their academic growth. In addition, they will prepare lessons that reflect best practices and accommodations for individual differences of students.

The math lab instructor will run their own classroom of students as part of the specials block of the school day. They will see every student across the middle school grade levels and will provide both enrichment and intervention. Whole group instruction is part of the block, but this teacher will also be expected to pull small groups, facilitate students’ use of instructional technology platforms, and assist students with monitoring math growth goals. They will assess student learning through observations, authentic performance, and more formal methods, in an ongoing manner, providing frequent student feedback, information to parents and written progress reports.

The specials schedule is subject to change and can vary from school to school. The specials team consists of up to seven teachers for the entire school, depending on the size of the school. Each specials teacher instructs students across multiple grade levels.
