History Teacher

Are you a high school history teacher interested in care for and education of the whole student? Do you have AP History experience?

A Jesuit Catholic school rooted in the tradition of cura personalis—care for the whole person—seeks a dynamic and mission-driven History teacher to join our faculty. This position is designed primarily for 11th grade history, as well as an AP History course, so AP History experience is strongly preferred. CRJHS serves a student body that is 98% Latino/Latina/Latine or Black. We believe student success is strengthened when educators bring diverse lived experiences, cultural competence, and a commitment to representation in the classroom, which also aligns with our Catholic mission and values. Educators from backgrounds historically underrepresented in teaching and those committed to culturally responsive instruction are strongly encouraged to apply.

We are looking for an educator who is passionate about accompanying young people in their intellectual, spiritual, and moral development. The ideal candidate will be committed to Jesuit education’s hallmark values—academic excellence, faith that does justice, and reflection leading to action—and can effectively engage students from diverse backgrounds in meaningful exploration of US History.

Required:

• Authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship
• Bachelor’s degree with a major, minor, or comparable credential of content expertise in the primary teaching discipline
• Proficiency using technology to advance teaching and learning, e.g. Canvas, PowerSchool
• Competency in designing and implementing curricula to serve a student population diverse in culture, religion, and ability
• Commitment to the mission of Cristo Rey Jesuit High School
• Complete Archdiocese student safety training, sign a Code of Conduct, and pass a background check

Preferred:

• Proficient bilingual Spanish/English skills strongly preferred
• Teaching license in the primary teaching discipline
• Master's Degree in Education or content area
• Prior successful middle or high school teaching experience in an urban school
• Experience with teaching students in need of significant academic support
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate with colleagues effectively
