Job description
Chicago Jesuit Academy is currently looking to hire talented teachers to serve our 3rd-8th grade school as we grow our student body.
Students who attend Chicago Jesuit Academy will be the next generation of leaders. Talented individuals who wish to be employed by Chicago Jesuit Academy as teachers must demonstrate a past and continued commitment to academic excellence and professional development. Strong candidates for teaching positions are disciplined workers, compassionate listeners and tireless advocates for the children they serve. Most importantly, they recognize that Chicago Jesuit Academy will ask them to approach their work as a vocation and make substantial contributions of their time and talents in the service of the students of the Academy. The success of each Academy student hinges upon the determination and excellence of each teacher.
There is no greater relationship at CJA than the relationship between teacher and student.
All faculty will be expected to serve as classroom teachers as well as proctors for a variety of daily and co-curricular activities. They are expected to:
- Model the ideal of being a “person for others.”
- Demonstrate a profound commitment to excellence in teaching through professional development.
- Have a sincere commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion with a belief that all children deserve equitable access to a high-quality education.
- Participate in the continued curricular and cultural development of the Academy.
- Be a highly effective classroom manager who aligns to the Responsive Classroom model for classroom culture.
- Promote all Academy policies set forth in staff and student handbooks.
- Actively participate in all required orientations, retreats, staff meetings and department meetings.
- Maintain detailed and accurate records of student performance as well as unit curriculae, weekly learning plans, and daily lesson plans.
- Plan and chaperone supplementary educational experiences, including retreats and field trips.
- Regularly engage in informal and formal observations and feedback.
- Communicate regularly with parents about student progress.
- Perform additional duties as assigned, including but not limited to one minor duty, such as proctoring breakfast or proctoring lunch/recess.
- Support the development of the Academy by sharing the school’s mission with friends and the benefactors who support the scholarship needs of Academy students.
- Strong candidates will believe in an education that forms the whole person — cura personalis. These candidates will also be expected to have outstanding interpersonal skills, excellent organizational skills and relevant teaching experience. Certification and a master’s degree in one’s desired subject area are preferred.
Candidates are strongly encouraged to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 upon commencing employment.
Mission: Chicago Jesuit Academy (CJA) is a full-scholarship lower and middle school for students from modest economic backgrounds who could not otherwise access a well-resourced, college prep education. We support and advocate for CJA students and alumni as well as other children of modest means as they progress to and through college prep high schools, post-secondary education and the transition to meaningful careers and citizenship. CJA invites students to become persons for others who aspire to be open to growth, loving, intellectually competent, religious and committed to doing justice.
Means: Located in the Austin neighborhood on Chicago’s West Side, CJA uses small class sizes, rigorous extended school days and an 11-month school year to develop each student as a whole person. CJA partners with the broader community to promote access to better educational resources and a deeper understanding of the obstacles to educational equity. The disciplined sacrifices of CJA’s students, alumni, parents, faculty, staff, volunteers and benefactors make the success of our mission possible.
