Contribute talents and skills to the school community in additional co-curricular capacities
Provide timely, meaningful feedback on assessments, lab work, projects, and other demonstrations of student learning
Collaborate with colleagues within the department and across disciplines, including mathematics and other STEM areas
Design, lead, or support a two-week X-term course each May/June, an immersive experiential learning opportunity that may draw on academic expertise or personal interests
Use instructional technology thoughtfully and selectively, including emerging tools such as generative AI, when it meaningfully enhances learning while prioritizing foundational skills and authentic assessment
Communicate with students, parents, and colleagues in a timely and professional manner
Be supportive and philosophically aligned with the mission of Stevenson School, which is guided by three central aims: to prepare students for success in school and their lives beyond school; to foster their passion for learning and achievement; and to help them shape a joyful life.

Demonstrated facility with instructional technology, including the effective use of a learning management system (e.g., Canvas), to communicate expectations, organize course content, and support student learning
Ability to contribute significantly to an established area of co-curricular life, such as coaching, providing after-school theater assistance, or supporting student clubs and affinity groups
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Strong interpersonal skills and demonstrated ability to work effectively and collaboratively with students, colleagues, and families
Ability to maintain confidentiality and professional integrity in all aspects of school life
Commitment to being part of a diverse, equitable and inclusive school community
