Education

Ensworth School seeks a dynamic and intellectually engaging science educator to join its high school faculty. Strong candidates will have demonstrated the ability to develop meaningful relationships with a diverse student body and collaborate with colleagues across scientific disciplines. A love for teaching high school students and a commitment to Ensworth’s Core Skills Framework are essential.

The primary teaching assignment will include freshman Biology and Chemistry within an integrated two-year science sequence that helps students make meaningful connections across biology, chemistry, and physics. Ideal candidates will bring a strong background in science and a collaborative approach to curriculum planning, instruction, and assessment. Experience creating hands-on, inquiry-based laboratory experiences that emphasize scientific reasoning, experimental design, evidence-based argumentation, and effective communication is highly valued; familiarity with Argument-Driven Inquiry (ADI) is a plus. Flexibility to teach science or engineering electives for juniors and seniors and an interest in supporting science-related clubs or extracurricular activities are also valued, as is proficiency with current educational technologies.
