The Ewing Marion Kauffman School is a free, public charter school serving 5th-12th graders with a mission to create college graduates.EMKS seeks results-driven, culturally responsive educators to join our team. We anchor our work around four guiding principles:
  • Belief and Connection: Hold high expectations for every student while building strong relationships; never allow identity or bias to lower standards.
  • Clear is Kind: Communicate high expectations directly and teach students how to navigate systems and norms they may not yet know.
  • Intent and Impact: Act with purpose to empower students, continually assess the impact of practices, and adjust as needed.
  • Cultural Context + Critical Thinking: Deliver rigorous, culturally responsive learning that pushes students to think critically and engage with their world.

Position: Middle School Teacher (Grades 5-8) - Math, Science, English, History, and Specials (Language, Fitness, Art, Music)

  • Embrace feedback, engage in continuous improvement, and take on additional responsibilities as assigned by the Principal.

Desired Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree required; master's degree preferred.
  • Teaching experience or leadership in a high-performing charter, district, or independent school preferred.
  • Experience working with students in urban or public charter settings (student teaching, after-school, camps, etc.).
  • Eligible for or holding state teaching certification/licensure for middle school.
  • Deep commitment to Kauffman's mission and to closing the achievement gap.
  • Personal qualities: maturity, humility, strong work ethic, resilience, responsiveness to feedback, attention to detail, and entrepreneurial energy.
  • Ability to remain calm and professional under pressure and to act strategically while managing competing demands.
Compensation & Benefits
  • Competitive salary commensurate with experience.
  • Comprehensive health benefits (medical, dental, vision)
  • 403B plan as well as employer match available up to 4%
  • Part of the KCPSRS retirement system
  • Paid time off and school holidays
  • Paid parental leave available
