Thank you for your interest in joining us as an Apprentice Teacher for the 2024-2025 School Year! Please read the position description in detail before applying. By completing this application, you will be placed into our talent pool for this program. If you have additional questions or require a different timelines, please reach out to us at humancapital@scienceandtech.org. 

POSITION: Apprentice Teacher (2024-2025 School Year)

GRADE LEVEL: Hiring for both middle school and high school positions

LOCATION: Currently hiring at multiple locations. See a map of our 16 schools here. 

SALARY: $44,000 with a $4000 scholarship to the Relay Graduate School of Education + financial support with relocation if applicable. Possibilities for up to $25k extra pay through Student Educator Stipend Program and substitute teaching. Finally we also offer a relocation stipend for anyone joining us from 75 miles or more from Denver! 

STATUS: Full time school year, benefits eligible, exempt, in-person position

START DATE: ATs in Relay GSE attend a week-long intensive in mid-July. First day of DSST new staff training is at the end of July. You can view the current School Year Calendar here.

KEY ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES

Launch your teaching career with a team of extraordinary educators! DSST’s Apprentice Teacher (AT) Program is a year-long teaching residency designed to support you in learning to teach at DSST Public Schools while also earning a competitive salary. You’ll gain transformative classroom experience and development under the guidance of a DSST Mentor Teacher and a program designed to improve your craft through intentional learning, observation, and practice. At the end of your first year, you’ll also have the option of pursuing a Master’s in Art in Teaching at a heavily subsidized rate. 

• Your primary responsibility is to learn! Our ATs spend time observing various DSST Teachers, practicing teaching real classes, getting direct feedback from their assigned Mentor Teacher, and participating in their school and network provided development. 

• At the end of your gradual year-long onboarding, you will have the confidence and opportunity to lead your own classroom within our network. 

• You will build meaningful relationships with and make a tangible impact on the minds and lives of students.

• Apprentice Teachers may also take on additional duties as assigned such as supporting student recruitment, running a small group advisory class, after school tutoring, etc. See many of our possible duties here. 

Please Note: teaching experience is not required to become an Apprentice Teacher! We are excited to interview anyone who has completed (or will complete!) a Bachelor’s Degree in any major and wants to make a difference in the lives of 6th-12th grade students. We will inquire about your subject interests & location preference at the time of interview.

Key Differences between Apprentice Teachers and DSST Teachers:

An Apprentice Teacher, unlike a DSST Teacher, does not have the responsibility of managing the learning and culture of his/her own classroom until the end of the year. In the beginning of the Apprentice Teaching experience, the Apprentice Teacher will not assume full responsibility for long term planning, daily planning; assessment creation, data analysis, or behavior management-- the DSST Mentor Teacher will manage all of these classroom components and help the Apprentice Teacher transition to managing more on their own as the year progresses. By the end of the year, it is the goal of the Apprentice Teacher to manage the majority of long and short-term planning, assessment creation, data analysis, and behavior management so that they are ready to assume full leadership of a classroom in the following school year.

Apprentice Teacher Pathway

DSST Apprentice Teachers commit to the following pathway to support their development as a teacher. Enrollment and good standing in this pathway is a requirement for continued participation in the DSST Apprentice Teacher Program.

• Relay Residency Program (Licensure and master's degree pathway): Most DSST Apprentice Teachers (including recent college graduates and career changers) enroll in the highly acclaimed Relay Teacher Residency program. For math and science teaching candidates, this preferred partner program is aligned with DSST’s core teaching practices and is highly regarded by our DSST Apprentice Teacher alums.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

• Teaching experience is not required to become an Apprentice Teacher!

• A completed Bachelor’s Degree (any major) prior to start date

• An unwavering belief that all students can succeed in high school, reach their most ambitious post-secondary goals, and lead exemplary lives

• Desire to personally professionally grow in their practice of becoming an anti-racist educator

• Self-awareness, a regular practice of reflection, and a desire to continuously improve

• You need a plan and the ability to demonstrate knowledge of your content area by September 1, 2024.

• For Apprentice Teachers in the Relay Residency Pathway, full enrollment and continued participation in the Relay GSE program is required.

IDEAL QUALIFICATIONS

• Proven commitment to and experience with serving students of color, students with disabilities, and/or multilingual students
