· Recruit, hire, and retain high-quality educators.

· Oversee daily school operations, scholar discipline, attendance, and safety.

· Partner with families to support scholar success.

· Collaborate closely with the Lower School Principal and executive leadership on school-wide initiatives.

Partnership with the Lower School Principal

The Upper School Principal and Lower School Principal operate as one leadership team with one mission. Together they establish a unified vision, collaborate on strategic planning, ensure consistency across grade levels, support one another through shared leadership, and model collaboration for staff and scholars.

Qualifications

· Master's degree in Educational Leadership or related field.

· Valid Tennessee Administrator License or eligibility to obtain one.

· Minimum five years of successful teaching experience.

· Minimum three years of successful school leadership experience.

Why MPAC Academy?

We are looking for leaders who enjoy coaching teachers, building strong relationships, and helping scholars discover their potential. This is an opportunity to shape the future of a growing school alongside an equally committed Lower School Principal and leadership team.
