MATCHBOOK LEARNING
Wendell Phillips School 63 | Indianapolis, Indiana
Middle School Flex Teacher
4 Positions Available - Grades 5, 6, 7 & 8 (one per grade) | Salary: $51,500 - $83,000 | Full-Time
Our Vision
At Matchbook Learning, our vision is simple: every child is known, loved, and flourishing. We are a tuition-free public charter school proudly rooted in the Haughville neighborhood of Indianapolis, serving K-8 students at Wendell Phillips School 63. Our students come with high needs and extraordinary potential - and our staff shows up every day to meet both.
Half of our student population are Multilingual Learners. We serve students with a wide range of learning needs and we are proud to be in this community. You will be surrounded by a visible, supportive administration, a strong instructional coaching team, a dedicated MLL director, a large restorative team, and colleagues who put kids first.
About This Role
We are hiring four Middle School Flex Teachers - one at each grade level from 5th through 8th grade.
This is a unique, high-impact role for educators who thrive on using data, reinforcing skills, and meeting
students exactly where they are.
In the flex room, you will reinforce ELA writing skills using school-provided rubrics and materials, and
math skills using Envision Math, Practice Buddy, and MathXL. Student data from these platforms is
turned around quickly - your role is to target what the data tells you, track skill progression, and close
gaps in real time.
This role is ideal for candidates with a background in science, social studies, ELA, or math who are
willing and excited to step outside their primary content area. We will coach you completely. All
materials are provided - you simply internalize them and execute with excellence.
Key Responsibilities

• Deliver ELA writing skill reinforcement using school-provided rubrics, writing frameworks, and materials - 100% curriculum fidelity
• Deliver math skill reinforcement using Envision Math, Practice Buddy, and MathXL platforms

• Track student skill progression in both ELA and math and communicate results to grade-level teachers
• Participate in weekly/bi-weekly data meetings to align flex instruction with core classroom priorities
• Implement SIOP-aligned strategies to support Multilingual Learners during all flex instruction
• Maintain a structured, positive environment using PBIS and restorative practices
• Participate in coaching cycles, professional development, and instructional feedback sessions
• Build relationships with students through conferencing and consistent daily presence
• Communicate with families and contribute to school-wide culture and competency structures

Qualifications
Required:

• Bachelor's degree in any field - science, social studies, math, and ELA backgrounds all strongly welcome
