Discovery High School Commercial
Are you looking to join the founding team of a one-of-kind High School where students are prepared for high demand, high paying, high-tech jobs of tomorrow? Are you looking to be part of a school community where teachers are lead learners and are energized by their work? Are you looking for a Principal who is hugely invested in the development, diversification and fulfillment of his teachers? Do you want to be part of a school with a growth mindset about its students’ unlimited potential and a commitment to achieving equity through innovation?
At Discovery High School, we will ask a lot of our students and staff, and yet we believe that school should be a fun and interactive place where students and staff look forward to coming to school every day. As educators we believe that relationships with our students are the foundation on which all social and academic success is built. Additionally, we strengthen our practice through five hours of professional learning per week, built within our 7:20-3:30 school day. Collaboration and peer to-peer learning are central to our growth as educators.
As a small school we will be able to provide our students with a personalized progression of learning that includes internships, externships, entrepreneurship, industry mentors, stackable career certificates, and extensive accrual of college credits while in High School. If you are up for the challenge, join our team!

  If you meet some of the qualifications above, we encourage you to apply or to reach out for more information.
