Ingenuity Prep prepares Ward 8 students to succeed in college and beyond as impactful civic leaders. Our innovative instructional model promotes small-group learning for students, collaborative teaching teams, and robust coaching and professional development opportunities for staff.

As an After-School Leader Teacher, you will report to the out-of-School Time Manager. At Ingenuity Prep, our After-School Lead Teachers are responsible for developing and delivering comprehensive after-school programming to provide fun, informative, and impactful extracurricular activities for students in grades Pre-K 3 through 8th grade.

This role involves designing age-appropriate programming, facilitating engaging activities, and fostering a positive and inclusive environment. Ingenuity Prep’s After School Lead Teachers collaborate with school staff, parents, and community resources to support students after school hours and provide a safe and educational environment for all.

WHAT WE’RE ABOUT

• Mission: We’re closing the opportunity gap. Students and families in Southeast D.C. have too few options for high-quality elementary, middle, and high schools. Ingenuity Prep aspires to right this systemic injustice, providing an exemplary educational option for Southeast D.C.’s students and families.
• Model: We pair high expectations with high support. Too often, our students are underestimated. At Ingenuity Prep, an innovative teacher development model, paired with best-in-class training from strong instructional leaders, allows us to grow great teachers who, ultimately, lead high-expectation and high-support classrooms.
• Results: Our students are defying expectations. Ingenuity Prep’s students outperform their neighborhood peers on rigorous, national, college-track assessments. Already out-performing many of their more privileged peers around the city, in the coming years, Ingenuity Prep’s students will provide an expectation-defying and achievement-gap-closing proof point — showing what our kids are capable of when we provide the right opportunities, expectations, and support.

• Develop and implement engaging club activities tailored to the interests and needs of your student group.
• Inspire and motivate students, fostering a positive and inclusive atmosphere.
