Full Description:

The UNO Charter School Network knows that the key to student success is the adults in their lives. We believe in a call to service that reflects pride, passion and respect. The UNO Charter School Network therefore sets out to find only the most talented, dedicated, visionary adults who are highly capable of infusing character by fostering real relationships with students. The UNO Charter School Network believes in passionately employing high quality people, of high character who believe in using meaningful evaluative techniques to assess learning, who are consistently raising expectations, and who place supports in place to ensure that students achieve mastery. The UNO Charter School Network teacher is unique in that they realize that success is built on relationships and they focus their work on student learning. Furthermore, they whole-heartedly believe that all students can learn and that it is all of our responsibilities to develop our students, both personally and academically. In serving a community that is primarily composed of Hispanic students and parents, the UNO Charter School Network provides an opportunity for teachers to reverse low achievement and dropout trends by building on strengths of this immigrant community—a solid work ethic, family orientation and commitment to fulfilling their responsibilities and taking advantage of opportunities as American citizens. The UNO Charter School Network has been involved with educational reform in Chicago for the past 20 years and has responded to the educational dilemma by establishing eight academically successful K-8 charter schools since 1997 and, in response to parent demand, a quality high school that promotes UNO’s standard of high expectations and structured school environment. The UNO Charter School Network’s mission is to reshape the culture of education reform by creating learning environments where academic success is not a hope but an expectation.

The UNO Charter School Network is searching for visionary leaders, teachers and staff. If you possess the enthusiasm and commitment to fulfill the promise of public education and are interested in joining our team to create a unique atmosphere of discipline and rigor throughout the school, we invite you to apply for our High School and Elementary Special Education teaching positions.
