Arturo A. Schomburg Satellite Academy Bronx Hiring Several Positions: SPED, History, Science, English, School Aide

Hello Prospective Candidates!

Are you excited about education and delivering passion-infused instruction to a vibrant

community of Black and Brown students? Are you looking for a small, tight knit fellowship that  nourishes your growth and development as a pedagogue with robust professional learning and teacher-peer leadership support? Then, AASSAB may be the place for you! 

Arturo A. Schomburg Satellite Academy Bronx is an Alternative Transfer High School that is currently expanding its program offerings to include Future Ready - Health Career programs and a Bilingual Special Education program. Due to this expansion, we are looking for new community members and currently have openings for teaching positions and other posts. 

Please email mvernon@schools.nyc.gov, kduverge@schools.nyc.gov and  acerqua@schools.nyc.gov to express your interest.

A little more about the Special Education position:

  • We primarily have ICT classes in our school due to the fact that we believe a teacher's ability to consistently plan with a partner teacher and work with the same group of students for an extended period of time leads to higher academic achievements for students. This is also the least restrictive environment to ensure that our Sped students flourish.

  • We had a team of 4-5 Special education teachers and are now expanding to a team of 6-7.  We meet one to two times a week as a team.

  • Special Education teachers at our school are expected to support 3 classes and will have a caseload of approximately 15-20 IEP's a year.

A little more about the History position:

  • We are looking for teachers who develop, plan, and deliver engaging lessons on historical topics,  including ancient civilizations, modern history, government and economics. 

  • Assess student learning through benchmarks and essays and project based learning experiences, including experiences that extend beyond the school building. 

A little more about the Science position:

  • Our Science team consists of three science teachers. 

  • We are looking for candidates who oversee science laboratory activities, ensuring students learn and follow safety regulations while using scientific tools like biology, chemistry or physics. 

  • Design inquiry-based, hands-on lessons that promote scientific thinking and problem solving. 

  • We are looking for teachers that offer additional student support through tutoring, or enrichment.

  • Assess student learning through benchmarks and essays and project based learning experiences, including experiences that extend beyond the school building.

A little more about the English position:
