We are a one-school district, with the majority of our students coming from two sender districts, River Forest Public Schools District 90 and Oak Park Elementary School District 97. We offer more than 200 courses, a variety of programs for students with special needs, 75 clubs and activities, and 29 competitive sports. We prepare our students well for post-secondary success, with an average ACT composite score of 24 and a 94% graduation rate.

Our villages have long embraced the LGBTQ community, and we have a significant mix of homeowners and renters.

We seek faculty and staff who have high expectations for all students, and who value student voice in education.

Qualifications:

Valid Illinois Professional Educator’s License with Physics and Chemistry endorsement required.
Commitment to equity and and creating a supportive and inclusive learning environment for all students.

Position Summary:

We are seeking an innovative, student-centered educator to join our Science Division with a dual teaching assignment in AP Physics 1 and Physics-Chemistry. The ideal candidate embraces "the power of doing," prioritizing practice-based mastery and transferable skill development over traditional rote memorization. A key element of the Physics-Chemistry assignment involves co-teaching alongside a Special Education educator to deliver an inclusive, highly supported curriculum. This position requires a skilled collaborator who thrives in team-oriented environments—both in a co-taught classroom and within a Teacher Collaboration Team (TCT)—to guarantee equitable, high-quality learning experiences for all students.

Facilitate Discourse-Driven Inquiry: Design and lead classroom experiences rooted in driving phenomena and guided inquiry, fostering student-led discourse, active sense-making, and deep conceptual understanding across all student readiness levels.
Assess & Track Transferable Skills: Align grading and assessment practices with core scientific competencies—investigation, modeling, data synthesis, and evidence-based communication—utilizing accommodations and scaffolded rubrics to support individual student growth.
Cultivate a Safe, Iterative Classroom Culture: Normalize the scientific process by framing mistakes, model revisions, and data recalibrations as essential steps toward mastery rather than academic penalties.
Collaborate in High-Functioning TCTs: Work productively with course-level teams to co-design units, analyze student work, refine instructional strategies, and ensure consistency of rigorous, accessible science content across sections.
Foster Student Agency & Inclusivity: Empower every learner to engage in authentic scientific thinking, providing the necessary supports for students of all abilities to ask original questions, investigate real-world phenomena, and communicate their findings collaboratively.
