Job Opening at Vaux Big Picture High School
Posted by Big Picture Philadelphia on January 28, 2020
Join Our Team: Vaux BPHS is hiring an Advisor (Spanish) for a March 1 start!
All Advisor applicants must be certified to teach high school in Pennsylvania, as Advisors at Vaux BPHS are employed by the District (PFT). Part-time teachers need not be certified.
Big Picture schools have a selective recruitment process because we expect advisors to make dramatic, measurable gains not just in student achievement, but in a student’s life. The challenges that today’s young adults face are enormous and very personal. That’s why we focus on educating one student at time. And that’s why we seek candidates whose philosophy and real-life experiences match nine important hiring principles, which include:
- Strong instructional leadership and team management skills
- A belief that students should be at the center of their own learning
- The expectations that all students will be prepared for post-secondary mobility
- The ability to build deep relationships with students and peers
- Strong convictions for your own personal and professional beliefs
- The pursuit of a variety of interests beyond education
- The ability to lead, influence, and motivate others
- A track record of resourcefulness and being solution-oriented
- Demonstrated ambition and longevity in personal and professional pursuits
