Two posts at Boston Latin
Two science openings at one of Massachusetts' premier (albeit urban) public high schools: Boston Latin Academy
Boston Latin Academy is an "exam-school," meaning that all students must take a test to show their competency. Truly these kids represent the best and the brightest. Latin Academy also holds the distinction as being the most racially diverse school
in the Commonwealth. To see further stats, go to: [ http://www.bostonpublicschools.org/files/reportcards/SCH1020.pdf ]http://www.bostonpublicschools.org/files/reportcards/SCH1020.pdf
Because of a sudden loss of one faculty member and increased enrollment there are now two open opportunities for anyone who is science-credentialed, (even if you are not pre-qualified by Boston HR.)
Currently, the positions are semi influx, though they appear to be:
#1: A position that is mostly 10th grade general Physics (MCAS) and one general science
#2: A position that is mostly general science, with some chemistry
These positions are semi-flexible and are dependent on the skills of the selected qualified applicant and the constraints of the master schedule. Again, applicants must be science certified.
If interested, please forward your resume to: emiliapastor@gmail.com
