About Lawrence Public Schools:
Lawrence Public Schools is an urban district serving more than 13,000 students, the majority of whom are economically disadvantaged.

We are committed to ensuring that our students, who have for too long been underserved, are provided with a high-quality, free, public education at their local district schools.

About Abbott Lawrence Academy:
Abbott Lawrence Academy (ALA) offers students in Lawrence an opportunity previously unavailable to most: the chance to experience a rich and rewarding honors education in the tradition of the most prestigious independent schools in the country, free of charge. All of our students undergo a comprehensive admissions process consisting of an application and entrance exam.

With an inaugural cohort of grade 9 students in the fall of 2015, ALA promised a first-of-its-kind experience: the personalization of an accelerated academic program combined with access to the robust enrichment programs available on the Lawrence High School Campus. The result has been a school that challenges its students every day and ultimately prepares them for admission to the nation’s most competitive colleges and universities.

In addition to having rigorous academic expectations, ALA students are required to participate in a club or sport every year. Additionally, each student is expected to complete at least 100 hours of community service over the course of his or her ALA experience. Our ultimate goal is to develop well-rounded students who are equipped with the skills and tools necessary to have successful post-secondary careers.

About This Position:
A successful candidate will act out the ALA mission of providing a high quality, rigorous, college preparatory education for each student in a safe and nurturing learning environment that values hard work, determination and citizenship. Additionally, the candidate will have the capacity to build strong and lasting relationships with students and families.

Responsibilities:
A successful candidate’s responsibilities will include, but not be limited to, the following:
•Teach, reinforce, remediate, and ensure mastery of academic content with individual students, small groups of students, and whole class(es) of students; Course sections will include: AP Spanish Literature & Honors Spanish for Heritage Learners
•Design and implement curricula and activities to meet Common Core standards and frameworks at the honors, pre-AP and AP levels;
•Design and implement assessments that measure progress towards academic standards;
