Job description

Chicago Public Schools (CPS) is a district on the rise, serving over 320,000 students in 500+ schools and employing over 44,000 people, most of them teachers. CPS has set ambitious goals to ensure that every student, in every school and every neighborhood, has access to a world-class learning experience that prepares each for success in college, career, and civic life. In order to fulfill this mission, we make three commitments to our students, their families, and all Chicagoans: academic progress, financial stability, and integrity. Six core values are embedded within these commitments - student-centered, whole child, equity, academic excellence, community partnership, and continuous learning.
The Department of Curriculum, Instruction, and Digital Learning is leading the Curriculum Equity Initiative (CEI) - a comprehensive Pre-K through 12th-grade curriculum and digital ecosystem. Launched in July 2021, Skyline - the district's first standards-aligned, culturally responsive, digital PreK-12 curriculum - provides CPS students and teachers with access to high-quality, engaging learning materials.
Job Summary:

    • The Skyline Social Science Curriculum that has been previously published on the Knowledge Center (preferred)
