Milwaukee Math and Science Academy has an opening for a full-time kindergarten teacher for the 2024-2025 school year. MMSA is seeking a creative, energetic and student centered teacher who will be able to provide challenging and enriching instruction to our scholars. The ideal candidate will be able to work well with students, staff and parents to maximize student achievement.
The highly qualified teacher should: plan lessons that meet the individual student’s needs and interests, implement quality instruction based on Wisconsin Standards, have high expectations for their students, use quality assessments to monitor progress and provide effective feedback to students and parents on a regular basis, use positive classroom management techniques and encourage students to maintain a high standard of classroom behavior.
Milwaukee Math and Science Academy is an independent, public charter school on the near northwest side of Milwaukee in the Sherman Park area. We will have approximately 250 students in K4-8th grade for the 2024-2025 school year. We are fortunate to be able to cap the number of students in each class so teachers can build positive relationships with students while creating high expectations for significant academic growth.
Our school successfully adopted the Success For All reading curriculum during the 2021-2022 school year and it has already significantly impacted our students' reading achievement. The Eureka math curriculum was adopted during the 2022-2023 school year. All classrooms have a Chromebook cart for student use, a Smartboard, teacher laptop, document camera, and writing pad.
