Employer Description
 
The Greene School is a statewide independent public charter school serving 210 students from over 20 communities across Rhode Island. Intentional diversity and inclusion increases the richness of ideas, creative power, problem-solving ability, and respect for others. The Greene School mission challenges the community to explore the interdependence of human and natural systems. Through a rigorous pre-college curriculum, we develop citizens and leaders engaged in finding peaceful and sustainable solutions to local and global challenges. Current student demographics represent the following: 1. 20% of the students receive services through individual education plans (IEPs) 2. 46% identify as students of color including Latinx, Native American, Black, Asian, or two or more races 3. 24% identify within the LGBT community 4. Urban 55%, Suburban 15%, Rural 30% The Greene School embraces an expeditionary-based pedagogy and strives to impart the values of integrity, compassion, tolerance, perseverance, and responsibility—both personal as well as societal. By providing direct experiences in nature, along with the latest in environmental science and technology, we prepare our students to be informed, skilled, innovative, and involved community leaders. Our students will grow academically and socially, become the environmental stewards of the future, and actively manage the limited resources that we share as a global community. As an EL Education credentialed school, we create classrooms where... 1. Learning is challenging 2. Learning is active 3. Learning is meaningful 4. Learning is collaborative 5. Learning is public The Greene School is looking for teachers who can lead and facilitate mixed ability classrooms where expectations are high and instruction is varied and meaningful for every student every day.
