Job description

Are you a science or math teacher looking for a school that gives you at least 1 dedicated prep day per week? Are you excited about tackling the challenge of post-COVID learning loss? Have you taught physics or algebra?

At Cristo Rey Jesuit High School, we are seeking a dedicated and enthusiastic teacher for the 2025-26 school year to teach courses in Physics and Algebra. As a teacher at our school, you will have the opportunity to not only educate students but also inspire and empower them to reach their full potential. 98% of our student population identify as Latino/Latina/Latine or Black; student success starts with seeing themselves in the classroom, so individuals who identify as Latino/Latina/Latine and/or Black are strongly encouraged to apply.

School Description:

Cristo Rey Jesuit High School provides access to a Catholic, Jesuit, college and career preparatory education to unlock the potential of students of any culture, faith, or creed to transform our communities. All students are required to complete a rigorous, standards-based college preparatory curriculum and participate in the Corporate Work Study Program whereby each student works five days per month in a corporate work assignment. Cristo Rey Jesuit High School is a member of the Cristo Rey Network of 37 high schools around the United States that subscribe to similar demographic, academic, and internship program guidelines.

Cristo Rey Jesuit High School is located in Minneapolis, MN; all teaching and work is done on-site. No hybrid or remote work is available; no visa sponsorship is available.

Our community is one of hard work and dedication. Our students work hard in the classroom and at their jobs. Our faculty and staff are dedicated and committed to our students' success. Our families work hard to contribute to their student's education. Our supervisors, volunteers and benefactors also play a pivotal role in supporting students in and out of the classroom. See www.cristoreytc.org for more information about our school.

Cristo Rey Jesuit High School is committed to creating and supporting an inclusive, diverse, and supportive work environment. We welcome people from all backgrounds, identities, and perspectives to contribute to a mission-driven learning community for students.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Responsibilities:

• Guided by the Cristo Rey Network’s standards and benchmarks, develop standards-based, data-driven annual, unit, and lesson plans that drive student achievement gains on core assessments, including Cristo Rey Network end-of-course assessments.
• Design and administer interim assessments aligned to course standards, complete in-depth analysis of student performance on them, and design appropriate instructional responses to assessment results.
• Implement rigorous, engaging, high-impact lessons that accelerate student growth and differentiate for individual students.
• Provide targeted one-on-one and small-group tutoring to students during designated office hours.
• Actively build an understanding of each student as an individual in the spirit of cura personalis (care for the whole person).
• Help define, and consistently uphold, school-wide practices, routines, and norms for student behavior including PBIS (positive behavior interventions and support) and High Trust philosophies.
• Maintain a classroom culture that supports student learning.
• Reflect on teaching practices through regular coaching meetings guided by the Danielson Framework for Teaching.

Professional Presence

• Participate in continued professional development.
• Participate actively in the professional community through collaboration with colleagues in a range of contexts.
• Contribute to the Cristo Rey community outside of classroom responsibilities.
• Partner with the full Cristo Rey community to further the mission as a college preparatory school.
• Model values consistent with Catholic, Jesuit education and service to others.
• Participate in Ignatian Identity cohort meetings held every six weeks with the Director of Jesuit Mission and Identity to learn more about and engage with Jesuit and Ignatian values and spirituality, as well as attendance of an Ignatian Retreat for New Employees during the summer after their first year of employment, with expenses paid by the School.
