Leaders High School seeks a Spanish Teacher (or potentially another world language) and a Special Education Teacher
Leaders is a small high school in south Brooklyn that promotes critical thinking and adventurous learning. Our students collaborate to complete meaningful and rigorous projects that allow them to creatively apply what they have learned and make sense of our complex world. The Leaders’ curriculum, pedagogy, and our wide range of programs are designed to support and inspire students as they grow to embody our core values of leading, learning, contributing, and exploring.
Crew is the cornerstone upon which we build our strong and supportive community at Leaders. Every student is part of a small Crew of students that meets with an advisor throughout their time in high school to support each other and engage in activities that promote social-emotional growth. We are committed to our student-led restorative justice program and serve as an RJ Mentor School.
Leaders is a proud member of the NY Performance Standards Consortium and NYC Outward Bound. Rather than take Regents exams as a graduation requirement, our student complete and present in-depth projects focused on literary analysis, mathematical problem-solving, the application of the scientific method, engineering projects, and social studies research.
